Tried Scrap Yards?
Could pick up ones with minimal damage there perhaps!

Try hills auto breakers down south. Last time I was on their web site they had several flood damage minis for breaking.

just had a look, they wont sell the whole car, because of the insurance cat they have to break them into individual parts, what a frickin waste, the flood damaged ones just need a good dry out !!! lol

wonder how much and how much hassle it would be to get a cooper s engine and gearbox, and fit into my cooper ?

There was a guy offering a "kit" on ebay to do that - he would even fit it for you. Doesnt seem to have one on just now.
