England Got My New Cooper S

I've just taken delivery of my new Dark Silver Cooper S

It'a absolutely stunning! I've just changed from a 2007 BMW Z4 2.0, and I was concered it would be somewhat of a come down. But I just love the MINI so I took the plunge!

Ive had Dark Silver with Black roof and black bonnet stripes,
Clilli Pack,
MFSW,
Full Bluetooth,
Armrest,
Storage pack,
TLC.
Got the Rear Windows tinted limo black (had it done at stealers before pickup)

Plan to get the sound system uprated my Mikey, hense why I haven't specced the HiFi.


Will post pictures once it stops raining!!!

Yeah i'll be around mate. Love the car though, its rapid! I was going to get the Works kit fitted ASAP but i'm thinking of putting it off for a bit now, simply because of how much oooomph its got. I can't wait to get out of work now. I can see it through the window and keep having to stop myself staring! .

As for the baggies....... Well, to put an optimistic slant of it we played Arsenal away and lost 1-0.
Everton at home was 2-1 and we played well and a draw away at Bolton is reseonable. As long as we can beat the teams around us at home we should be okay.

The Wolves are up there though, slotting them in on Saturday! I just hope we can find enough fire power to stay up when you lot come up. Get the big derby where it should be, in the premiership!!!

Good luck on the countdown for the S!!! It'll be worth it.

Guys from Wolves, me and a few mates are heading up to the Lancashire run (starting at Deryk Woodmans) at the end of the month it looks like. If your interested in following up together we could arrange a meeting point in the morning. Have a look in the UK events folder

It is lush congrats!

But I'm amazed how quick it starts raining up there in Wolverhampton! Take a pic from the front, dry, and round the back, soaked! Hehe!

Ah, no worries mate. I'll PM you with any others that come up not to far away.

I still can't stop grinning in the new MCS!!! Its so so quick. I'm not one for racing, but tonight a kid in a Clio 197cup tried to race me from the lights (soaking wet road so left the traction on) on the A449 and by the time I'd moved into third he was eating my exhaust!!!


Cooper S stock is FAST ENOUGH imo! It stuggles to get all the power down through the wheels as it is!!!
