Angry STOLEN MINI PARTS - London

We have been hit with a double theft by a credit card scam. Is anyone in the London SW16 area knows of any Minis in the area ? I am looking for some of our parts

Hmmm, up the road from us, and LOADS of Minis around... you might have trouble there Mikey

If you are coming to London though I have a Cooper that could do with your magic touch

SW16 is around Streatham, parts of which are not very savoury so exercise caution
