It can also be fitted to Austin, Morris and MG1100\/1300 derivatives. In addition, it can, with modification, be used on the 998cc and Cooper S with tappet chest breather canisters. Mini Spares can supply instructions on how to shorten the water-pump\/radiator end of the hose to match the original hose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mini Spares also offer a Kevlar reinforced top hose for the Cooper S as part number GRH247KEVLAR. Not only does this hose fit the original Cooper S models, it can be used when fitting 1275cc engines in conjunction with the standard Mini thermostat housing  into a round front Mini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GRH240KEVLAR &#8211; Kevlar Reinforced Lower Hose retails at \u00a39.54 inc vat<br>\nGRH247KEVLAR &#8211; Cooper S Kevlar Reinforced Top Hose retails at \u00a34.79 inc vat<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more details contact Mini Spares on <br>\n+44 1707 607700 or visit their website: www.minispares.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mini Spares has noticed that most of the standard rubber coolant hoses that are available seem to have a much shorter life expectancy than you would want.
