I had a chance encounter with a deer yesterday morning - busted the headlight and did a number on the fender door and rear 1/4 - didn't do the deer much good either. Anyone had any experience getting collision parts for Mini's. I have heard nightmares about getting foreign collision parts - hope this is not the case.

Bummer. I took a hit at 40+ by a Doe on my sportbike a few years ago. I almost hit one recently with the MCS.

GSX-R600 Results

Riders Against Venison is a club I started :smile: Perhaps i should start a Drivers Against Venison one

Best of luck

I’m not sure where you’re located, but I have no MINI dealer within 350 miles. I had major repairs done to my MCS after a boating accident (I hit a boat) 2 months ago. The local foreign car repair shop had no problems getting parts. It looks and drives good as new.
