That's awesome! Love the look! I wonder what MINI does to get 6 miles on the odometer?...my JCW had 6 miles on it as well when I picked it up!


Enjoy! Love the Cup Wheels with VO!

That looks great enjoy

Lovely colour, almost as good as our Electric Blue

enjoy! Looks great, I always thought the dealer had the ability to reset the milage of a new car when it was under such a low amount? So it could be at zero for the first owner?

Nice and new under here

After a trip back to the dealers today I now have the GB plates on that I originally requested and they removed the dealer sticker from the back window which I also requested when ordering it.

So, since August I've had two punctures!, two scuffed wheels! (all sorted though) and done 9000 miles!.
One small addition done today which I wanted from the beginning but didn't think I could get hold of them or even if they would fit, bought two JCW tailpipe trims (BMW PART No. 18302355304). Didn't think I could buy these without buying the exhaust but managed to get them from Bowker BMW in Blackburn for £125 delivered for the set of two. Easy to fit about 20 mins and they are purely cosmetic as far as the exhaust goes (standard Cooper S exhaust) but I think they go well with the body kit, yeah I know the car needs a wash but believe me it's clean everywhere except the rear bumper...Honest!
Looks like it's going to rain anyway...

I've been toying with fitting a carbon fibre tip to my Cooper(they fit) £60 doesn't sound bad value

 

[retromax]

A bit cleaner today

Changed the front grille, and what a pain in the ass that was!
