I have had my CROC #674 for about a year and a half. LOVE IT! just put new wheels and tires on. Finally found ones I liked. Will post a picture soon. Mine is a 2012 MCS convertible Chili red of course. I am starting to dress it up a bit. New shoes and socks yesterday would like to put mirror covers on in the black and white. where is the less expensive place to buy those and I noticed in my search that there are two kinds. Do just the cheaper covers versus replacing the entire mirror which works best. Also the number associated with the name like 56 what would a 2012 be. sorry for such novice questions. I am on a huge learning curve on this new endevor. LOL

 

Hello Hello is anyone out there.

 

Sorry you didn't get a response...this thread isn't really the one you wanted to use for asking specific questions.

But to respond to your questions, you can find several vendors in the NAM vendor threads that sell hundreds of lower-cost (than your dealer) aftermarket parts for your MINI, such as Outmotoring, and MINI Mania. I've used both and have had no problems with either.

Mirror caps are fine, and fit right over your existing mirrors and are held on firmly with sticky tape. They are a significantly lower cost alternative to replacing the entire mirror.

I'm not sure I understand your question regarding the number "56". If your MINI is a 2012 Convertible (I also had a 2010 Chili Red Convertible S), your model number is an R57 which covers all 2nd Generation Convertibles made after 2009. The R56 is a "regular" 2nd Generation MINI Cooper (hardtop), the R58 is a Coupe, R59 is a Roadster, etc.

You can usually search this forum for most any type of question you may have. Best wishes...happy motoring!

 

I guess I should say hello...owned the car for a month this Friday.
and well..I can't seem to link the flickr image...the forum doesn't seem to like flickr...

 

Can you have a number with an A&B?

 

I noticed some Chili Red Mini's with White tops in this group, but what about white with Chili Red tops? Am I welcome to join this group? Or will I be shun to the rear of the pack with those with Chili red mirror covers (which I also have).

 

just some new pics

 

There are clubs for white minis and other colors too. There are also clubs for Countryman. Yeh, this is for chili red.

 

I'm not elitest at all but I think it should say 'Chili Red' on the fender well under the bonnet before joining the club, otherwise it should be called the "some red paint" club.

 

Hi. Can I have 1978 please?

 

Got my 2007 CR R56 a couple months ago. PLease sign me up. Thanks

 

Hi guys!

Hi!

I have just bought myself a chili red Mini Cooper. Can you please sign me up?

 

jbat66,

Please sign me up as well. I purchased a 2013 R56S all Red about a month ago and would like #1959 if available.

Thanks!

 

 

Hiya guys, I was given CROC #622 but when I look at the list on the first page it's not showing anymore. Is there a different page with all the higher numbers?

What am I missing ... ?

 

I see you as #662 on the list. I'm not longer maintaining the list as I traded my CR for my current MINI GP.

Here's a link to the current list:

I'm not sure what you mean? AB100? or something like that???

 

Probably not, sorry. Is your white the Pepper white? I love that color.

 

Nice
