spinned - I like those wheels! Were they on the car on the lot or did you add them afterwards? Always been a big fan of those but have not seen them on a factory JCW until now.

I bought my JCW off the lot. No waiting... but I didn't like the stock wheels so I traded them out for Mini R99s with the John Cooper Works center cap. The wheel is approximately 17 Lbs (I recall) so they were a good choice for me... and the 7 spoke design allows for met to easily clean the brake calipers when I wash the car.

The R99's weigh 21.9 lbs... that was the reason I sold my challenge wheels and put the OZ's on that weigh 14.2 lbs a piece.
I wish one of you chili red guys would paint the headlight and trim rings in red and the wheels in gloss black. I'd love to see what it looks like. I think it would look absolutely fantastic. Chili red was my first choice of colors but since l bought mine off the lot also, I didn't have that choice.
I did mine in yellow. (everything's the same as this pic except with black trim on the belt moulding)

thanks. Yeh, not much ground clearance at all, especially that the next mod is TSW springs. Looks like I'll be cleaning up every road I visit...

My husband and I started shopping for camera a while back and decided this was the one for us. Simple, easy to use and all I have to do it hit the button.

Thanks! It is a Sony Cyber-Shot. Very easy point and click. It has several settings but for the most part I just leave it on the auto setting. It will also record videos. I know nothing about photography. My husband and I started shopping for camera a while back and decided this was the one for us. Simple, easy to use and all I have to do it hit the button.

Long overdue, here's mine after a wash and a fog light repair. I lost to a retread, which left the passenger front air dam trim hanging on by a few tabs and broke 2 of the 3 mounting points of the fog light. I was able to McGuvyer a new mounting point.

Ken! BEAUTIFUL CAR! I never thought I would like the green but it fits in SO well with your area of the country (just 5.5 hours north of ME!)....very nice pics...thanks for sharing them!
Kimini03......another beauty....LOVE the shot by the wooden covered bridge!!!!
I am considering ANOTHER MINI addition to our family.....I love the yellow and it is up there in the running for my choice! The only thing I would probably add to mine (if I can convince the wife to be a 2 mini household allong with "Clubbie") are the sport stripes to the bonnet and boot area.
Race Tripper,
While I am not usually a fan of the red, your car has to be one of the most beautiful I have seen! I was NEVER a fan of the driving lights but they really do fit your ride! Thanks for the shots!
To all: BEAUTIFUL pictures...the more I browse around NAM the MORE I want to have a MINI to call my own...not sure if I would go the JCW version or the MCS only version. It will DEFINITELY not be a Clubman S.....we already have one of those
!

Thanks. I've been very pleased with it. I originally started out ordering Red/Black and changed to Red/White. That ended up being a good decision for me.
