Very nice.. I quite like the wheels too.. Looks like anthricite headlining too ?

What the handling like with the 18's, Does it tramline a lot ?

Fantastic look hein! The Ultraleggera's look great. One question: what suspension is on the car? I looks to sit much lower than other R56's I've seen pics of.

What don't you like about the wheels? Their diameter matches the car's proportions well, and he can get away with a visually light wheel since his car is all-black.

Love the wheels and the whole overall look of the car. Thats one sinister looking MINI! That must be lowered suspension?
Congrats to everyone who has taken delivery, honestly i'm friggin jealous!
Ordered mine on the 24/11 and shall be getting it mid to late March. I am apparently the first Australian customer delivery!!! The 56 doesn't get to showrooms here until late Feb i believe.
I would love to see pics of somebodies DS/W CS, as thats what i'm waiting for!
Waiting impatiently.

salocin · Jan 4th, 2007, 10:41 AM

The best looking R56 I have seen to date ... wasn't keen at all on the new look Mini until I saw your pics!

Love the wheels!

I too would be most interested to know what suspension setup you have, it kinda retains the low squat look of the old model that I love so much.

Or maybe it is just the colour/ wheel combination that gives this effect?

Either way, superb, congratulations!

Mr Gary · Jan 4th, 2007, 11:04 AM

At the Dealers. A bit dirty, spacers on the suspension. Getting stripes added tomorrow.

I ordered it the first week of October and I finally get it on Saturday. woo hooo
