Source for Parts in UK

I'm looking to establish a source for late model Mini Cooper 1998, 1999, 2000 year models. Specifically, I'm looking to locate a source for the Rover electrical parts, emission control, and hoses.

Parts for these are not usually avaialble from the "normal" US sources.

Thanks.

Have you tried looking in Hemmings Motor News? You can usually pick them up at most good book stores if you don't subscribe.

I've checked Hemmings and several others. My issue is that this is one of the last cars built by Rover (7th week of 2000). I've located a source for most of the mechanical parts, now I'm looking for hoses, electrical and the computer systems (ECU and ABS) if I need them.

Mini Mania has a listing for companies that sell the late model Mini's but I'm not certain they can acquire the secialty parts.
