Those who drive their Minis yearround will be all too familiar with the offside ʻA-panelʼ that fills the gap between the front wing and door. The driverʼs side in particular is notorious for rust and often the first place to begin its return to the earth.
Mini Spares is now making a thicker replacement in an attempt to resist corrosion for longer. This panel (part no ALA5660MS) is for internal-door-hinge cars (1969-on) and is priced at £21.60. minispares.com
