Looks mega!! Apparently when Mum and Dad picked up "Heidi", there was a Lightning Blue/Black R56 MCS with Web Spokes. They were almost tempted to drive that one home

Griffer · Jan 21st, 2007, 06:54 PM

More.

Stunner and the colour looks great. Congrats

AMT · Jan 21st, 2007, 08:25 PM

Nice one Griff!

rainbowdreamer · Jan 21st, 2007, 11:10 PM

Any squeaks or rattles?

How does the drivetrain compare with the S convertible?

Nice car.

NIce car, nice house! Congrats Griffer!

Evo · Jan 23rd, 2007, 07:56 PM

Wow. Nice colour! Just as I hoped! Can't wait until I get my Lightning Blue MCS in february, with white spokes :-)

Griffer · Feb 7th, 2007, 08:40 PM

I fitted JCW mats, a front JCW badge and silver bulbs in all indicators today. I also painted the front indicator bulb holders silver as they are orange and still reflect in the headlight housing. I also reached the magical 1250 milestone last night. MPG will drop now!!!

Griffer · Feb 7th, 2007, 08:49 PM

Couple more, also got a chrome scoop, not so easy to get off as old one so I might get it fitted at dealers with white sport stripes. Also MP3 tags from MP3 CD, cool!

mister.t · Feb 8th, 2007, 07:12 AM

That looks wicked!! Lovin the JCW badge

Griffer · Feb 9th, 2007, 01:50 PM

Like the bonnet stripe, thinking of changing mine.

Mini Me GB · Feb 9th, 2007, 01:55 PM

Griffer · Feb 14th, 2007, 04:27 PM

It's a real nice car Griffer! The JCW badges are awesome...

I've finally got my new JCW strutbrace for the R56! It's good looking and efficient! Works really great!!
He're some photo's, will add a better one, where you can see it's a bit bend;
