Hello all,

My name is Kristof and I live in Belgium.

For 2 years I am driving a '03 R53 as my weekend car.
I have found alot of usefull information on this forum for the needed repairs on my Mini. I think we all know what I mean by that.

My Mini is a normal R53 with some modifications:

Mods by previous owner:

- JCW exhaust
- Roof in black carbon wrap
- Martini striping on the hood
- Carbon dashboard

Mods by me:
- Hybrid air filter
- R56 brake calipers
- R53 Sparco JCW seats
- Wiechers clubsport rollbar
- GRS motorsport intercooler
and alot of small repairs

In the future I am looking into an oil cooler and upgrading the pulley to a smaller size with some bigger injectors and some small cosmetic upgrades/changes
I use the Mini mainly as a weekend and track toy.

Some circuits I do on a regular basis:

- Nurburgring
- Zolder
- Spa Francorchamps
