PM'd back mate

Autometer Nexus range look similar to the Defi BF series as well - but they're rare as rocking horse shit

ODB2 Multi purpose gauge ? http://www.aeroforcetech.com/index.html ? Assuming its compatible as I don't know what OBD2 protocol the Mini uses. They do one specifically for a ford though.

Defi!! (see my prices in the Traders section!!).

However, the normal Link Meters are now being phased out and the main gauge will be the BF Series.
