DerekH · Jul 10th, 2007, 03:09 PM

Any members with MCS Chilli Red white roof ,with JCW kit or just skirts pic's please.

caesar · Jul 10th, 2007, 04:00 PM

Yes, I got a new MCS onThursday 5th July .

Chili Red all over
Chili pack
LSD
And a number of other extras. Done 400 miles so far, and it's beginning to loosen up !

Knowlsey · Jul 10th, 2007, 05:33 PM

Picked ours up 2 weeks ago, just under 500 miles on it now so beginning to stretch its legs a bit.

Just got my Cooper S in chili red with black top and exterior chrome package. It's running on 16" wheels with sport suspension. Glad I avoided the 17" wheels as the ride is firm enough.

DerekH · Aug 7th, 2007, 03:54 PM

Hi guys any new one's out there to let me see in CR one with white roof and JCW kit would be good thanks Derek

Andrew Timmins · Aug 9th, 2007, 07:55 PM

Just reached 1250 miles today. Time to start having some fun

zyo · Aug 9th, 2007, 09:16 PM

Looking great there Andrew, i'm waiting on my Chilli red and white MCS due in the next week or two, your pics are helping to fill the gap until it arrives.

DerekH · Aug 9th, 2007, 09:51 PM

Hi Andrew like the motor , yes 1250 miles key point for more fun or in my case slightly less miles as gave up, hope it is running good.

ZYO yes looking at all this cars is hard without it being on your drive we waited a few months and it was hell, good luck when you get your new car.

zyo · Aug 9th, 2007, 10:16 PM

Cheers Derek, your car has been a source of inspiration too. Your interior looks the same as I have specced all bar the silver dash , I have gone for the piano black. I know on alot of the new MCS's i have seen the rear suspension in particular looks a tad high, have you noticed this settling down at all. I know my current MO had quite a high ride height when I first had it but after a little use and quite often there being someone in the rear of the car it did settle to an acceptable level.

DerekH · Aug 9th, 2007, 10:26 PM

No ZYO i have not seen it settle much but plan to put on skirts to make it look lower from the side, and only thing i have done at the rear was ajust tail pipes lifted up into proper position i put pic's on site showing before and after its far better, on lowered springs they look great but we have no plans for this. I think somebody painted the trailing arms black so not so obvvious from the rear. I have to agree far to high could pass for Mini allroad with big bumpers and sump gaurd only kiding

zyo · Aug 9th, 2007, 11:21 PM

Passengers and a big bag of cement it is then

DerekH · Aug 10th, 2007, 12:14 AM

ZYO that is a good suggestion but how will you fit a bag of cement in the boot, i thought of paving slab but only good in clubman.

zyo · Aug 10th, 2007, 06:40 AM

Alright then , Passengers and my wifes handbag
