Yup, for $2300 (£1200?) I'd have been happy to fly over with the (correct) parts and fix it for you!

What needs fixing and do I still get a free holiday to North America included in the price? ;-)In that case; I live in Leicestershire, can you come over and do some work on my Minor, Ray?

By 'They' do you mean Atlanta Imports place? Is the MG wiper motor interchangeble with the Morris? or........please don't tell me I might be buying back my own motor!bmcecosse wrote:The master cylinder sounds like a real bodge - and they do show the wiper motor as available and not at all expensive. However - I agree - steer well clear after that stupidly expensive brakes experience!

Have a look at the website - but under 'Morris' they (Atlanta) show a wiper motor available for the car - it's also noted for a few other cars which could well be right - it is by no means unique to the Minor. However - after your past experience I would do all I could to NOT buy anything from the place again. There are many other suppliers about - if you search you will find. Victoria-British springs to mind - although they don't have a reputation for cheap prices.
