Very cool Hiro, congratulations. Loving the rims.

[Brettles]

Seeing as this is the place to post up pics of Pepper White Clubmans, I thought I should add some of mine.

Its not finished yet, as I still have some Factory fit aero side skirts on order from the MINI parts department. But I dont think its too bad considering its only 3 weeks old

[Maurice]

Daaaaaaamn. Wow, Brettles! That's a serious paint job there!

[Mr Silverblood]

I did it, I plunked down deposit money for my FIRST Mini Cooper, a Clubman. I was settling into the colour of Sparkling Silver, but when I saw it in person, I thought it looked horrendous....my apologies to those who love that colour, it's hardly silver though, unless I'm colour blind. lol

Anyways, I opted for Pepper White. For an off-white, it has some "pop" to it that I just can't describe. It blends so well with the black trim, that it's just so bloody perfect. Mine will be a non-S Clubman, with some lovely black bonnet stripes.

Wo-hoo!!!!!!!

It looks great Brettles, are you using it as a 'van'?

Love it! Very very cool, makes my clubman look a bit boring!

Thanks NickyJ!

A dealership in the states called Mini Of Peabody, in Massachusetts, just north of Boston. Very cool bunch of lads there. My delivery date is sometime in October, and it can't come fast enough. :-)

Brettles.........whats the score with the Aero package??
I only want the front end at the moment for my Clubbie.......was the dealer OK with supplying just the front?? I note that you say you are waiting on the sideskirts......didn't know that they had been released yet??

Cheers.

[Brettles]

They dont do a JCW kit like they do for the R56, although the front bumper from the R56 kit fits. The first dealer I went to werent sure if it would fit The second one said there was no reason why it wouldnt even though the part numbers for an R56 S and an R55 S front bumper were different, so I ordered the car from them. The bumper was ordered from the part department, it came in primer and had to be sprayed.

As for the side skirts, they are from the factory fit aero kit. They are just like the standard ones, only with the painted bit that aero side skirts have. They dont have the grills at the back like the R56 JCW ones, but all these do is collect stone chips For some reason BMW seem to be taking ages producing parts for stock, and I just hope that no one that has ordered the factory kit has an accident where a side skirt needs replacing!

[ItsNumptyBoy]

Thanks Brettles.

That's cleared things up nicely. I take it that the R56 front ended up being a direct fit with no extra "fettling" required in the end then.......which is very good news indeed

There's a thread on NAM where a guy has the factory aero skirts.......they look subtle, but nice.

[bahollings]

No pictures since I just ordered my Clubie S on 3rd of June, delivery date is "sometime around end of August" had to go with the 6-speed, after driving both auto/manual for me just no comparison with the "fun" factor. My wife wanted the auto since we do drive in traffic but I just couldn't be without that clutch pedal. I wanted the Hot Chocolate but my wife really likes the PW so I get the transmission and she can have the color PW.
So in the mean time I will just read your posts and look at all the Mini pictures here.

Excellent news welcome to Mini2.

[FootballRef]

Hi everyone!

Well I've just joined this site as - after ages prevaricating lol - have finally bought my low carbon Mini!!! Yay!

It currently has a Black Jack roof and I've not seen one of these before, so thought I would post some pictures to let you see what it is like. However I actually ordered the full colour union flag roof (doh!), so it will be turning red, white and blue soon

Cheers,
Dave

[ontheroadagain]

Interesting looking...so it came that way "off the lot"? I'll be looking forward to seeing your MCC with its new flag soon to compare.

[FootballRef]

No, the bonnet stripes came "off the lot" but I ordered the Union Flag on the roof. (It was a black roof originally(. Don't much like the Black Jack though - it's quite stylish but too subtle - only really really tall people notice it, so there is little point in having it I reckon. The red, white and blue will be more obvious at street level.

[ItsNumptyBoy]

Well...less than 2 weeks into ownership and I have started modding!!!!

1st issue for me was to remove the "rap star's blinging teeth look" from the front of the car by adding the JCW bumper/grill combo....and a set of spots for good measure.

Next stop....The Pirate on 30th

Congratulations 'ItsNumptyBoy' That looks ace

Welcome to MINI2 Dave, lovely Clubbie you have, especially the wheels

I'm looking forward to seeing the full red, white and blue UJ roof, although I really like the grey/black one

It looks fab with that bumper and grille, so what's Phil doing for you on 30th?

[M.O.S]

Have you been into Stratstone Harrogate recently? I was there on Wednesday, and they have a PW clubman with stripes, front and rear. It looks really good, as did yours on Sunday!
