So I have read a few posts about people buying factory parts and I am wondering what the best dealership is for parts at a reasonable price. I saw a website in which a person gave a part number and said that he paid $13.10 for it at his local dealer. I called Crevier today with the part number and they wanted $39.99 for the same part! I already pay for Orange County real estate once, I'm not going to pay for theirs! I emailed the sponsor that has an ad on this board for NOS parts, but have not heard back yet. Any suggestions?

 

Try Classic MINI, aka Classic Auto Campus. They're listed as a sponsor or vendor or something like that. I have dealt with them and been satisfied. I'm sure many others have been pleased with their experiences.

Good Luck!

 

Another vote for Classic MINI.

 

Come on Rick, nothing is "at a reasonable price" in Orange County!

Which is why I finally moved back to Utah after 9 years of being gouged in the O.C....

 

Yup, Classic MINI is the source!

 

I just got off the phone with Brian at Classic MINI and ordered all the parts that I need. I cannot believe their prices -vs- Crevier. Same part:

Crevier $39.99
Classic Auto: $10.96 (with the NAM discount)

 

Classic!
Classic!
Classic!

Um, Classic?

 

Yeah, Classic is their name, not classic as in classic Minis. Here you go:
