yeh m8 i have asked that the JC kits as well, i have been told that it is allowed at the end of the day however if anything goes wrong that is related to the kit- they will not fix it... so for example if the gearbox failed because of the extra power you'll have to pay for it... thats what i've been told- hope that helps i'm in deep thoughts about whether or not i should get it at the moment- the power upgrade is a bit hefty for me (£2500) but might go ahead with that body kit

John Cooper's must have been telling porkies when I asked them, then. Hmmm.

Now the price for the Cooper S is confirmed, I can't see the point in the JC Works kit for the Cooper. The Cooper S costs £2,900 more than the Cooper, but you effectively get the Chili pack (£1,000), ASC+T (£100), alarm (£200) and aluminium interior (£100?), so the supercharged engine, body kit and 6 speed gearbox cost you £1,500. Sounds like a bargain if you are looking for more power.

Good point. I bet if I traded my Cooper, Chilli pack + all the goodies for a Cooper "S" the difference I would pay wouldn't be far off the Cooper Works kit. I know which I'd rather have. 132 BHP against 165 BHP. No contest!

Redhotmini · Jan 13th, 2002, 04:00 PM

yeh suppose your right, but will have to wait another 8 months for delivery

and i wouldn't even get insured on the b*%&*

Redhotmini · Jan 13th, 2002, 04:04 PM

I heard from a couple of sources that it was estimated as 14.

Thanks to Paul who has now kindly posted the offcial comments from JCG about the TLC and Warranty.

Excellent job Monsta, where'd you manage to get the split prices from? I got a price list from my dealer for the Mini accessories and it quotes £1600 for the aerodynamic pack!! Do you think this includes fitting or is it something else that's added?

monsta · Jan 27th, 2002, 08:45 AM

I've got a print out of everything that is available in the brochure.. I think the price you were quoted for includes fitting and painting.

minimatt · Feb 25th, 2002, 06:58 AM

I personally prefer the look of the Cooper compared to the Cooper S. If you want more power check out germanformula.com - they offer a turbo package taking the Mini Cooper upto 260BHP +
Now that is gonna go some!...
