    Can anyone help me, can't seem to select a manufacturer for the old style mini, using quinn direct though, direct me elsewhere if needed, just want to check out the price for now.

    Here's a pic http://images.carzone.ie/images/CB4_990301_1_162045.jpg , will make an offer, dealer is asking silly cash (its a jap import though so should be rust free + even looks a bit bonkers, note the wheels!)

    Quinn won't insure a car that old online usually but the manufacturer would be "austin" or "rover", both of which its offering me on the list....

    Its not under Rover either actually! Just checked myself. BMC isn't there either.

    Unless its 1993+ Quinn won't talk to ye about it though. Also forgot there are post 1993 ones particularly Japan spec.

    1993? I thought Quinn refused it if it was older than 10 years.
    Is it a classic yet? Try Carole Nash.

    I've never had a problem with old modern cars and quinn.

    15 isn't it?

    1998 would be on 10 anyway.

    I hadn't realised it was a '98 until after I had posted.
