Hi
Is anyone interested in a KW coilovers group buy?
I saw QQQ mini in Belgium and it makes his car look great, and apparently handles even better.

Check the KW website http://www.kwsuspension.com and look at the V1 coilover units. These are the only ones available for the mini so far.

The RRP for the V1 for a mini is £687.
When ordering I would need your model date because the units are slightly different for cars built after April 2002.

So far I have got 4 people interested in coilovers (none with minis) so we will get 10% off the RRP price (£618 for minis). If we get 10 people then the saving is going to be a lot better.

Email me please with your interests or leave a post on here s3ngy@hotmail.com

Thanks a lot

Suspension is one of the best parts of the car now (together with the brakes and the engine tuning). Car is really transformed. Although standard suspension is already quite good, it suffered from understeer when pushing the car hard, which I like to do so now and then. Also the car had grip problems exiting out of (mainly) slow (2nd gear) corners. Both have dramatically improved with the KW coilovers. Coilovers are continuesly adjustable in the range of 0 - 70 mm. Mine is lowered 45 mm. Having problems with bumps sometimes, but the ride is as comfortable as with standard suspension.

Resuming, I can really recommand the KW suspension to anyone who wants to get substantial better handling out of his MINI without doing compromises to ride comfort. It really is worth every penny.

i'd say the kw is more comfortable than the stock setup even when i tuned it ALMOST at its hardest setting.....it's no where near as jumpy as the stock sets and the roll is much less.....

Sorry this is wrong as QQQ has said he has V2. These are slightly more expensive, I will find a price if people are interested.

Thanks a lot
