It's the first one the dealer has sold and they reckon it might be one of the first off the line sold to a customer? Could this be true, I doubt it?

We ordered.....chilli red with a black roof, bonnet stripes and a black grill, sports suspension, lsd, strut brace and a set of burnished R105's. I think the stock sports suspension will be stiff enough and I'll see how we get on with the brakes? And I'm not too sure about the aero kit, the front and sides look good, but I think the back looks pants!

And we managed to get the number plate WK57 MCS as well,

I just can't wait!!!

P & T.

We ordered a 2007 R56 MCS with the dealer installed JCW Tuning Kit, sorry to cause confusion!

And I've just been told that the JCW strut brace won't fit with the new tuning kit? Is this true?

I doubted that we were the first with the JCW tuning kit, we're just the first one our dealer had sold. He said "the tuning kit has only been available for a few weeks, you might be one of the first in the UK?".

So for those of you who already have the JCW tuning kit, what do we think of it?

P & T.
