Anyone else get the letter about this today? You can add the JCW kit to an R56 for $1100 at the moment..... pretty hard to resist if one was getting a new one....

Minipnut · Nov 20th, 2007, 11:51 AM

you mean it can be fitted if you already have an R56 ?

MickyD · Nov 20th, 2007, 10:29 PM

I think it's only at purchase time, not retrofit.

Michael · Nov 20th, 2007, 11:06 PM

Is that for the body kit or the engine bits???
Maybe time for me to upgrade!!! Mine clicked of 22,000km yesterday in 8 months and 8 days!

MickyD · Nov 21st, 2007, 12:17 AM

it's the engine bits (filter, exhaust, ECU)

I doubt you could get it as a retrofit - I think it's only when buying a new car.

For a strictly limited time when you purchase a new 2007 MINI Cooper S*, you can have a John Cooper Works tuning kit fitted for just $1,100 – that’s an incredible saving of over $3,000!

so the JCW kits is only around 4K originally? I thought they are a 10K option for the R53...

brett · Nov 21st, 2007, 10:28 AM

the car has to be delivered in NOVEMBER

I am currently specing one
Chilli Cooper S
Pepper white Black roof, with black bonnet stripes
Sat Nav, Bluetooth, DSC, Comfort access ( Lazy mans keys, absolute waste of money) Red interior inserts, Ipod adaptor and JCW SEATS but because no one has one in stock I miss out on the $1100 baby bonus.... I mean JCW kit

brett · Nov 21st, 2007, 10:44 AM

I've just emailed BMW Pleading to get it exteded outlining my issues with the mini that I have had ( 8 sets of interior trim) plus saying I'm a BIG mini fan having owned 9 of them and no mini in QLD have those specs I want

Michael · Nov 21st, 2007, 11:39 PM

From what i understand it is only for 'in stock' cars which means it IS dealership fitted.
A very good enticer to buy up some existing R56 stock.

I would soooo love to pay $$$ and get it all fitted!!

bugiz · Nov 22nd, 2007, 08:46 AM

If so.. hmm...

One problem for you... Lets just say that you can get it for $1100...

You have an AUTO... I don't think the kit is available for AUTO yet, which really sucks !

bugiz · Nov 22nd, 2007, 02:19 PM

Bugger!! Wonder if i could just get the other bits like brakes, struts, suspension, aerokit, exhaust.. hmm..

swamos · Nov 23rd, 2007, 09:53 AM

That's got to be good news for people who paid 10k to get a works kit a year or so ago.

No real comparison between the R53 JCW kit and the R56 JCW kit Steve and it is only a very limited offer. Good luck to those that can take advantage of it.
