Mozart Estate Present Go-Kart Mozart in Mozart's Mini-Mart (shortened to Mozart's Mini-Mart) is the fourth studio album by Go-Kart Mozart, the musical project of former Felt and Denim frontman Lawrence. It was released on 23 February 2018 on West Midlands Records, a subsidiary of Cherry Red.

The album was originally envisioned by Lawrence as a mini-album, and was intended to be a companion piece to the band's previous album On the Hot Dog Streets. However, the mini-album was never completed in time, and was later extended into a 17-track full-length album.

The album was produced by Ian Button, formerly of the band Death in Vegas. The album's release coincided with the remastered editions of the first five Felt albums by Cherry Red on CD and vinyl.
