Hi all,
I have a very nice 1991 Mini with a 1300 engine and canvas roof. Problem is high emissions keep failing the NCT! Can anyone recommend a good mechanic in Leinster I can use for a proper tune up?? Many thanks...

Daniel S here!
In University of Limerick (final year Mechanical Engineering)!
From Ennis, Co. Clare.
Looking to buy a R53 Mini Cooper S until I can afford insurance on a John Cooper Works version.
Also trying to sell my Ford Focus, so could be a little while before I get the Mini.
Anyone else from Limerick around? Ever go to Cars & Coffee? Would love to meet a few members and hear their opinions on the car!

I'm Tom, 23, from Dublin, student in UCD studying Computer Science.
Started off with a 91 Mini City that I bought when I was 17, then went on to a MK5 Golf, and now I'm back!
Just bought my second mini, a 1981 998cc, and looking to get it insured as my main car now that I've sold the golf.
Any advice on the best way to go about getting insured on it?
Thanks for the help,
Tom

I've tried a few places now.. Getting the same reply from most of them, they don't insure cars over 20y/o, even though the car still has to pass an NCT!
Any advice on the best broker to talk to?
