  • I'm new here...

    Hi

    I've just registered on this forum and thought I'd introduce myself.

    I've had loads of BL and Austin Rover cars in the past (mainly Minis and Metros, with a couple of Allegros and Maxis too), and currently I have my first Maestro.

    It's a 1985 1.3 Base model in Champagne. I've owned it since November and I use it most days. The only issue with it at the moment is that it has no heater, I think a pipe between the bulkhead and matrix has split so I've bypassed it for now, and hope to get that fixed soon.









    And here's one of my Mini that I bought from it's original owner in 2005.

    Welcome to the club
    Nice looking maestro..but i love the mini (mini nut!!)

    If you need some parts there is maestro in Southampton being broken for parts (1.3)
    i will be picking up the heater next week so if it has the pipes (which i wont need) I'll give you a shout.

          Would that Mini be Mace Brown?


          I was half tempted by that 1.3 myself when I was looking, but what I really wanted was a Montego. So I held off and ended up with a cracker! Welcome in.

              Thanks! The Mini is indeed Mace, I don't think I've seen another in that colour...

                Forum member 'Oli' had a Mace HL estate, we spent ages trying to reference the shade as neither of us had seen it before! HMW257W where are you now?
