A standard Mini coil can only do so much. When the compression is raised (as in most high performance engines) or non-standard fuel mixtures are used the coil’s performance is challenged so something better is needed. The Mini Spares Gold Performance Coil is totally different to the usual Lucas type and is generally acclaimed as the best on the market.
It represents a massive improvement over the standard coil and yet is a direct replacement upgrade. It must be noted though that it can only be used on non-ballast type Minis manufactured up to 1982. The internal components of this coil are completely original and were proven in extensive tests before Mini Spares released the coil onto the market.
Order as part number MSC15 at £21.37 inc. VAT.
Also available: MSC110 and DLB111 coils for performance cars with ballast ignition 1982 on.
Original type coil bracket 12G2994 with welded on lug nuts as fitted from 1969-1995

The Renault Alpine V6 was the first car launched by Alpine under Renault ownership, although the company had previously had a long association with Renault. In the UK it was simply known as the Renault GTA to avoid confusion with the Sunbeam Alpine. It was quite a performer in its day. It’s light weight made it quicker than it’s rivals like the Porsche 944. Nowadays a car like this could benefit from some suspension modifications; particularly when it has to deal with both our current patched up road system and the smooth tarmac of a race track.
When Tickford was commissioned to convert the Ford Cosworth RS into the RS500 one of the changes it made was to lower and uprate the suspension. Thanks to Gaz Cosworth RS 4×4 (1989-93) owners can now also enjoy the benefits of uprated and lower suspension, with GAZ’s height and damper rate adjustable conversion.
