Just read your most recent newsletter and noticed that you have purchased a Cooper D Clubman.

What modifications do you plan on doing to it?

And what will you be using the car for?

ALD0 · Jan 17th, 2008, 07:18 PM

A Clubman for modding?!
Interesting purchase, maybe they see that Derv is the way forward!

Lolance · Jan 18th, 2008, 01:48 PM

Cooper D Clubman mods must mean Cooper D mods too!

Benny No.1 · Jan 18th, 2008, 02:25 PM

Should be interesting. Lohen seems to be the only MINI tuner/specialist taking any interest in the R56 at the moment in the UK. It helps that they are the official resellers for ALTA over here though, who are pushing alot of R56 goodies onto the market.

That would telling! We'll actually be mainly using it as the Lohen's workhorse, but with it being around here it's sure to get some attention in the engine, suspension and wheels department sometime soon.

Funnily enough I got it from Loui....

We are slowly confirming the spec for the parts at the moment, so watch the website for further development. (i'm sure that we will post something here as well

)

So... are you going to go with just the Eibach springs or the whole hog with KW coilovers?

Although I would love to have it on coilovers, for the purposes of being a good demonstration vehicle & adding variety it will go on to Eibach springs and once the Koni FSD dampers come out for it it will be dropped on to those as well.

This is what we have in mind for it already:
Brembo BBK (Black caliper, 2 Piece)
Wheels/Tyres - TBC

Eibach Springs
+ KONI FSD dampers as soon as they are availabel
Possible anti-roll bars
Strut brace

Aerokit front bumper and grill
Colour coding of arches
Short antenna
Bike Rack .....

Currently working on the graphic "theme"

Power developments TBC

Any suggestions anyone?

Bike Rack!!

Benny No.1 · Mar 13th, 2008, 10:43 AM

Shame there isn't anything on the market body kit wise to compliment the aero front bumper, I think it will look good! I've seen some pictures of a dealer clubman with aero front on it. It was also vinyl wrapped in the lime green, to duplicate the challenge pace car. Sure they are on this site somewhere!

Benny No.1 · Mar 13th, 2008, 11:15 AM

Found some!
