2005 CR MCS in Michigan

After being out of a Mini for 15 years (used to have a '67 Austin Cooper S... I'll try to find some pictures), I started looking for a low mileage 2005-06.

Here's what I found:

2005 CR MCS
- #3 Cold Weather Package
- #2 Sport Package
- Multifunction Steering Wheel
- Chrome Line Interior / Exterior
- Cockpit Chrono Package
- 25k miles

Looking forward to picking up some tips.

The only mods on the list so far are to:
- Install the used winter steelies I just picked up
- Philips X-treme +80 H7 High Beam bulbs (I put the H4 version in my wife's Wrangler and they're awesome)
- Hella Optilux XY (extreme yellow) fog lamp bulbs

Great MINI & Mini!!!

Nice MCS you found there. Low miles & a good looker, win-win!

You might give Chad at Detroit tuned a call. He knows MINI's inside & out, plus he's a great guy that is always willing to help.

Yeah! Thanks for the wheels/tires Squirlz.

I made it to work without much drama yesterday. The toughest part was getting out of my neighborhood. After that, it was kinda nice... hardly anybody on the road
