JCW GarageInterested in John Cooper Works (JCW) parts for your 2nd Generation MINI? This is where JCW upgrades and accessories for the MINI Clubman (R55), Cooper and Cooper S (R56), and Cabrio (R57) MINIs are discussed.
If BMW is going to get that **** about the oil brand, then they'll find anything to get out of warranty. They don't know what you use. Unless it's documented on the receipts. I get all my oil changes done at the dealer so the warranty never has a beef. But I use Mobil 5/30 full syn for topping off which you should do with turbos. Dealer said it's fine.

42. This is my wife's get around car. She is 35 and the car is fully tuned and gobbles up Both mustangs and Camaros. Love the look on the guys face after he just got spanked by a mini!!
Age 17. Got it when I was 16, I had saved for years to get a MINI as my first car. Technically, it is not a JCW... yet ... But it has the JCW body kit, which I do not recall seeing on other S coopers around me in California. I'm giving it some more power and JCW brakes sometime soon anyways.
29; this is the first car I have ever owned with more than two doors, but it doesn't quite take the title of the biggest (that award would go to a '94 full-size blazer that died by the hand of Cash for Clunkers).
