Galveston, TX



Datona Beach, FL



Malibu, CA



Sequoia National Park, CA
1. Thanks!
2. Yeah I think it's all sorted now. And I think we really did come out ahead.
3. Will definitely look into Houston MINI Motoring Society!
4. Very nice! That's exactly what we want to do with our MINI. Go all over the place! Hopefully we'll be able to share some pictures like this soon. We are planning to go see the redwoods in it later this year if possible. But there are lots of closer day trips that we want to take as well. We need more days off!

I don't think they will. But do do already have a Remus system for the F60 which is really nice.

So after looking at the website I see that the Akrapovic downpipe will fit an R60. Are the downpipes different for the R60 and the F60? Any chance at all that it would fit?
