Mini One To Cooper S?

[Murker1991]

dont listen to these, people dont understand you want a good looking car even if you cant get insured on a cooper s, i wouldnt get a bonnet scoop if i was you, but id get the aero kit cooper s fuel cap and alloys

[M.O.S]

Don't put an S bonnet on. It'll make you look a tit in front of everyone - they'll think its an S, then when you say its a One you'll be a laughing stock.

Bodykit yes

If your dad has a lot of money then fine, but don't expect people to like you!

If you're asking for an opinion, why reject it!? My opinion is don't do it, because for one it'd be an epic fail, two you'd be embarrassed and three it'd make the car far harder to sell and insure.

If you're going to do anything, follow what MINIAC says. Thats bang on advice.

I agree with the general consensus... fit the JCW kit, Cooper S spoiler and some 17" OEM wheels, and you'll have an awesome looking MINI. I wouldn't worry about anything beyond that.

If you want to go further, consider things like spotlights, JCW CF bits, interior mods, tints, colour coding the exterior trim, etc. - but be sure to declare everything to your insurance.

- I would get insured on a Cooper S if i could but i cant because im turning 17 in January 2011.

This is the best advice so far.

The money you'll spank on kits and insurance will buy and insure you a real Cooper S in two or three years time.

a 17 year old what you want him to just leave his studies or home commitments and go travelling throw away all the money thats been saved up for a car? yeh good idea..
