General Information
Year 2006
Make MINI
Model Cooper, Convertible
Color Chili Red
History
Original owner bought in June 2006, sold in June 2008 due to job loss. I am the second owner. At time I bought it had 23,300 miles.
----------
Exterior
Not the best shot, but here I wanted to show my Union Jack mirror caps.
The mirrors on the MINI are so big that I decided to not add anything else to the exterior of the MINI because the caps are a focal point.
So I will pass on scuttles, valve stem caps, rear view mirror cover, etc.
-----
Interior
Took out the gargantuan cup holder. Also removed the smoker's package ashtray [which looks cool] and using the hole as a water bottle holder.
Have the Brownflyer wind deflector.
Lights package is cool, which provides LED lights on the door handles, etc.
-----
In-Car Entertainment
Harmon Kardon sound that sounds great to me.
-----
Under the Hood
Manual 5 speed Getrag. Engine bone stock putt putt. But moves fast enough for me.
-----
Suspension
Nothing special. Put on some M7 strut plates.
Update: On February 8, 2009, installed the MINI-Madness steel reinforcement plates. Sold the M7 plates.
I like the MM plates better. Concept makes more sense.

Stock 15" alloy, Pirelli P3000.
