Our Story…

I founded BPA in 2011 after honing my skills for 9 years at an engine reconditioning company. After successfully growing the business for five years, my older brother began competing in the Mini Challenge UK. To support him on the race track, I began purchasing old Minis for their shells and spare parts. It was a win-win situation for the business and for my brother's racing career. After 2 seasons I soon released I knew these Minis like the back of my hand and that I should put that knowledge into specialising in Minis and BMWs. This allowed us to not only support my brother's racing efforts but also to expand our inventory and offer more diverse and cost-effective options for our customers.

Since that pivotal moment, my workshop has seen a steady flow of both standard and modified BMWs and Minis for repairs, modifications, and servicing. This has allowed me to expand my knowledge and experience with this particular manufacturer, making me one of Kent's premier independent specialists for BMWs and Minis. Furthermore, I am recognized as the leading specialist in Thanet for these vehicles. 

Don't just take my word for it, see for yourself the exceptional level of service and quality we provide by reading our glowing customer reviews. I am confident that our reputation speaks for itself and you will find the feedback from our satisfied clients to be a testament to our expertise and commitment to excellence.
