THE MINI MISSION
Keeping the Classics on the Road
Classic Mini DIY started out of my small driveway workshop in 2015. I always focus on two things: keeping your Classic Mini on the road and making DIY car work accessible for all skill levels. I make DIY videos and tutorials showing exactly how to complete a wide range of jobs on your Classic Mini. I also partner with world-class manufacturers to deliver top-of-the-line products to personalize and ensure the performance of your Classic Mini.
