Milltek, but I would not recommend it. Without a DP, I don't think any exhaust does much on these cars....

New Horizon Blue Clubby

I'm a former R53 and R56 owner who's happily back in the fold! Just picked up a Horizon Blue Clubman from MINI of Murray. The extra room is awesome and the handling is pretty much identical to the coupe. I've been back lurking on NAM ... and wanted to thank everyone for the great advice re engines and options, etc. Here she is -- just a camera phone pic -- will post better ones later.

We need to stop calling her LadyG. I keep getting the name confused with Lady Gaga! Should never have youtubed the song "Poker face." Now I can't get it out of my head!

How far did you lower it? I don't think it could get any lower and still drive it!

It's lowered a little over half a foot

Nah, not hydraulics. It's on air suspension....kinda the same idea, but different dynamics and much better ride comfort and handling. You find air suspension on various cars like VW's or Mercedes to give height and ride comfort control.

Man, the Clubmans on this page give me new car fever, and my Clubbie is still pretty new! I love the dark silver. I want a garage, like Jay Leno's, with about ten different Minis of various color combinations. All of the S variety.
Not that I don't love my Hot Chocolate Justa, but darn, these S beauties just get to me. Partly due to driving a JCW cabrio a few weeks ago. Holy S*#t, the powerrr! Keep up the postings folks.

There are some great new Clubmen on here - have to say that theMadDane's PW with matching camper is super!

Congrats to you all and DaveCo - we need a bigger shot of your new beauty! But I think you might need to edit your signature line... Don't think they made either Horizon Blue in 2007, did they?

Thanks!

Wait 'til I paint it PW with matching racing stripes!
Right now I'm just doing some basic refurb, wiring, water tank, re-paint frame, Kitchen support struts, and a new door. Going to Yosemite for my B-day on 10/31 and my beautiful wife is treating me to dinner at the Ahwanee, can't wait.
