Heritage site? somewhere to look up car production info

Someone mentioned I could find a site that would research the production date of our Mini and send us a certificate. Does anyone know what site it is????

You want this site -- and pay attention to the popup:

http://www.heritage.org.uk/archive/archive.htm

The certificates are available for classic Minis built at Longbridge or Cowley (site of the "Oxford" factory where the new MINI is built). Tim, since I understand you have a Mini from New Zealand, you might want to check with them before you place your order. - it may have been a CKD kit assembled in NZ or an Oz Mini.

(and Tim, what do you think about my suggestion in another thread that you use a race Mini as your dealership's other symbolic classic Mini?)

The certificates are pretty nice, gives you a frame-worthy "birth certificate" for your car...

Yes, thats what he wants to do, it's just a question of finding the right one. I spent 3 months looking for the current one. THanks for the link, I'll see if that will do.
