mechanic

I'm looking for a mechanic not associated with a dealer in my area. The closest dealer is over an hour away, and I need someone I can trust who understands Minis, to whom I can drag my Mini if she breaks down. I live in the Husdon Valley of NY State, south of the Capital Region.

Mini or MINI?

Mini = the "classic" produced from 1959 to 2000, and not sold in the US after the mid 60's

MINI = the one with dealers today in the US

you may want to re-post in the proper place . . .

Sadly the distinction 'tween Mini and MINI nomenclature is rapidly deteriorating on this site.

OP (original poster):

sorry if I turned you off

as an owner of both MINI and Mini I take the difference to heart

Your best bet will be to try and contact a MINI group/club near you for recommendations
