My Cooper S - PS/PS + Vipers

Hey everyone,

Just thought I would pop the first pics up of my MCS

I picked it up yesterday, and what can I say... its awesome!! A totally different car to my previous R56 One, for both better and worse reasons... its soooo characterful and zippy.. yet I've managed to spend my usual weekly fuel amount in one day I don't think it helps that I've been driving it pretty much all the time

Here are the pics.. the spec is pretty much as can be seen.. its standard under the bonnet (at the moment)

The mods I've done so far are...

- Black 'S' Side Repeaters
- Shorty Aerial
- Halos
- Alloys




I can't wait for a good long summer of shows now!

Looks great loving the aero kit and vipers

"Shame about the reflectors in the rear bumper"

Cheers for the comments everyone! I thought it was a rare looking beasty.. hence me snapping it up wayyy before I originally intended on getting an S.

Doh! I forgot to photoshop my rear reflectors out!!!

Cheers Nicky I would have loved an S convertible.. but the insurance was out of this world with me still being young. It's not exactly cheap as it is Also I think if I had got a Cooper S convertible I would have hidden away to live in a big long tunnel.. which wouldn't have been good for my health The sound of that supercharger is infectious enough in a hardtop!!

That looks ace Many congratulations And don't you worry about those fuel bills - Have it while you can afford it - I'm getting worried that I'm never gonna be able to afford to run an S properly I can only dream

Stunning - halos look very cool on yours (and I'm not normally a fan of them!)

How comes you traded from an R56 One to an R53 S?? Didn't you used to have a lovely Cooper with HK and sound kit, or am I getting confused?

Congratulations Mate, Looks very Nice. Especially liking the vipers, and the wheels really set it off!

Any more exterior mods planned?

As aldo said, does it have front tints? If it does (as you probably know) you will have to watch yourself.

I got pulled last year for front tints and was told i was going to be given 3 points. Around 8 months fighting the case, my solicitor got me off with it. Sorry for off topic'ness*
