I have a set of slightly used KW V2 Coilovers that I purchased from a member here on the forum about 2 months ago. I never installed them and decided to go a different way with the car. They are in excellent condition as they were used by previous owner for only a few months before selling the car. I am in Cheyenne WY and would prefer not to ship but can at buyers expense.

These are for R53 but I was told they will fit R55/56 with an additional rear shock bushing (previous owner ran them on an R56 with this added bushing (does not come with)).

As you can see they are in great shape I only unwrapped one front and one rear for photos but it is all there.

 

Can you post some photos?

 

Can u look at the springs and give the rates please
probably expressed like 7.0K front and 5.o for rear

 

I will try and get some photos today. I will also let you know the spring rates.

 

OP, do you know roughly what the total mileage would be on them, or hard to say? If you and he only had them for a few months, safe to say that they are less than a year old? Did he purchase them new? Sorry for all the questions

The Mini world is all new to me and I'm contemplating a set of V2's used or some Megan's. Thanks in advance!

 

No problem, that is correct it is hard to say but yes it was only on his car for a few months so maybe 10k at the most I would guess. The were new when he purchased them to the best of my knowledge, and I would again assume that they are under year old, I apologize I do not have more definitive answers I just want to be as honest as possible. I will say that I run Megan's on my R55 and they are pretty stiff, not bad for the money but I've heard KW's are much much better quality (that is why I bought these for my wife's car vs. Megan's, we decided against them in general though).

 

I keep forgetting to call KW to find out what modifications would be needed to install this on my clubman.

 

PM replied to. These are actually V1's. Was interested in V2's.
Cheers

 

Why do you say they are V1s? I have checked them out on KW's site and the part numbers are inline with V2's.

 

I found a few old threads that discuss the V1/V2 conclusion of part number 2001108 like this one:

http://www.mini2.com/forum/first-gen...coilovers.html

I am interested and actually don't care if they are V1 or V2 (prob never go to adjust them), but it does drive how much I am willing to pay. Perhaps you can take a close-up picture on the top where V2 allows adjustments?

 

I am attempting to attach photos that show them as V2s, they have an adjuster in the tool kit that fits in the top and lets you select rebound. Also the manual states they are "variant 2" (in German though). Unfortunately I can not seem to upload photos for some reason... I've emailed the admin. I'm happy to send them direct to your email if you would like.

 

Will you take 650 and I'll pay shipping

 

No i'm sorry I am not interested in going that low. thank you for your offer though.

 

Bump!

 

Bump?

 

still available?

 

Let me know if you're willing to ship to 44718

 

Never heard anything back, my offer above still stands.

 

I bought them a couple of months ago.

 

Damn

Enjoy them!
