so, I am going to order JCW-kit it cost 6.600€ and that
is very very much money... my dealer is going to put that JCW-kit to my car.. so are they compensate/make good any of my Cooper S. kits (exhaust, supercharged ect)... how was your case??? Where did you put your "old" stuff..did you get
any discount???
Have you heard that dealers compensate your standard S-kits
when they put JCW to your car...
They deliver my car in April, so everything is new.. what I do with those "old" stuff...

€ 6600!!!!!!!

I expected it to be ridiculously expensive, but this really is absurd, a bit sad, laughable and offensive at the same time

Hope they don't expect to sell many at that price

Can't believe it really....

MikeL,

You didnt mention I picked mine up on the same day

Now on 1265 miles - loverly

Saanika · Mar 10th, 2003, 01:00 PM

6.600€ its about 4.000£ that is alot of money for JCW-kit
that is why I expect that if I give them my Cooper S standard kit they should give me that JCW-kit for 4000€,
they can sell my "old-new" stuff to somebody...

MichaelK · Mar 10th, 2003, 01:02 PM

Hi Rick,

Good time in OZ ? missed your JCW no doubt. Well I've now done 1400 miles

Well heres a picture of the first two JCW Cooper S, Rick's on the left mine on the right

Rick · Mar 10th, 2003, 01:19 PM

NZ actually but yeah had a great time, thanks

Will e-mail you shortly as have another thing to tell you in private

Sure makes a different noise once you get past 4500rpm doesnt it?

Agree that the radio was immediately turned off when I first heard that!

coopersworks · Mar 12th, 2003, 11:14 AM

As i havent picked mine up yet what does it sound like!

DivideBYZero · Mar 12th, 2003, 11:18 AM

There is a small sound sample in my video in the 'Goodies' section of this site.

LMB · Mar 21st, 2003, 05:42 AM

I want more...can you video or create an Mpeg of the exhaust note and the sound of the supercharger please?

Kind of. My highway mileage has gotten better by a couple MPGs, my city mileage has gotten worse by a couple MPGs. I attribute the drop in city MPG to changes in my driving style rather than to the kit itself. With the extra power available, I tend to lead-foot it a bit more than I used to. I did go through one tank of gas trying to drive a little more quietly, more like I used to pre-JCW, and my city mileage was a little better than what I used to get before I had the kit installed...
