Heritage Opens New Doors

Classic car parts supplier, British Motor Heritage Limited, has recently taken over the production of doors for the original Mini. Until now, the Mini doors supplied by Heritage, either as individual components or fitted to complete Mini and Mini Clubman bodyshells, came from an outside manufacturer.

However, Heritage were delighted to have the recent opportunity to take over all of the relevant tooling, as managing director, David Bishop explains:

"As a low volume specialist manufacturing company, we are always seeking ways of improving our response to demand. The acquisition of the Mini door production facilities means that we now produce all of the original Mini body-in-white components, giving us complete control over lead times, whether for new batches of doors or for complete bodyshells. It also gives us direct control over quality from start to finish. Now we really can say: If it’s Original Equipment original Mini, it’s Heritage!"

Heritage, through its Approved Specialist Network, can now supply Mini doors to all specifications from MkI to MkIV. Later MkV doors continue to be distributed by Xpart.
