Hi all

Having read the thread about our billet timing chain cover, I felt I should register so I could address a couple of points.

For those who don't know us, we've been dealing with Mini parts for 18 years and 3 years ago purchased a CNC mill to start manufacturing of billet aluminium parts. We have subsequently bought a second mill to cope with the growing range.

I'll drop by from time to time to see if there are any questions I can answer, although I'm no expert in forced induction!

As you can see from my avatar image, my own personal weakness is Land Rovers. Another great British product that breaks a lot!

Hi Steve. Can't wait to get my shiny widget that goes under the master cylinders in the post soon. It almost makes having to take them back off again worth it!

You should put a warning on that website. It's going to cost me a bleedin fortune over the next few months!

Thanks for the welcome guys.

External handles..... not sure about that. It's 'on the list', but it's a very long list :)

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

While probably the most wasteful use for a block of aluminium ever it would be quite cool to have a design you own rocker cover service, where you could have whatever you want written/drawn on it.8-)

Welcome to TM Steve.

love the products but have to echo Gr4h4m's comment that your website is not the easiest to use. I gave up in the end and picked up one of the magazine adds

Thanks for all the comments.

Discounts......
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer discounts on the RetroSport stuff. We price it based on actual cost, thus keeping the retail price to a minimum. Talk to any machine shop and they will tell you our prices are very good.
However, mention TM to us and most of the other products will attract a discount.


Web site......
I know, I know! It's a bit of a nightmare to navigate around. The lists are just getting way too long. We don't do the site in-house, apart from updating content. Trying to get a reliable company to deal with the rest has proven a problem. I won't bore you with details, but we have had two companies start looking at it and it's ended up like getting blood from a stone *angry*

Are you psychic?!!
We are about to release an alternator bracket (A+) and a pressure relief valve cap shortly after *surprised* Once they are available, I'll announce them in the trade section.

We have dabbled with the idea of a rocker cover, but it's another one of those "on the list" items for now.
