2006 Cooper. 188k miles. Just installed Koni FSDs, New control lower control bushings, and new continental conti extremes. New pads and rotors in the rear due to uneven wear on passage side of car. Looking into a new set of plugs and wires due to unknown age and lumpy idle from time to time.

2003 MCS still under 114k. My koni fsd order came in yesterday and can't wait till this weekend to install. Still using oem springs. I also have polyurethane control arm bushings to pop in the front too.

How's the upgrade in shocks and bushings?!

Mine hasn't moved in a couple months, so no new miles. :( 365,000 total, 0 on new engine (because its still in pieces). I'll be back at it soon!

Woah, did you add a radial blur or something to that in post? What's going on in that pic.

It's two exposures - layered, one regular and one taken at a slower shutter speed while "spinning" my iPhone...

I thought it just looked a little better than without...

I put on close to 18K in the first year and a half as my DD, but about 4K/year now. I had it on the track once at MINI Thunder in Feb. and plan to do more track events. It was almost 6 years old with 8,600 miles when I bought it.

I so glad to see that old of a MINI with "real" miles on it! My '05 is nearly at 148k. MOTOR ON! How do y'all have so little miles on 10-12 year old fun mobiles?

So little miles... I just bought my 02 MCS with 21.5k about 6wk ago. I've added about 3k so far and will be continuing on that rate for probably years to come.

It was interesting that the title I transferred showed that there were about 9k on it in 2003 but only an addition 12.5k from 03 to when I bought it. Probably spent most of its life in the garage. Not so much any more.

My husband just left with Coop, so I can't provide an odometer pic, but we turned over 180,000 miles this weekend. Best little car ever!
