Hey everyone!

I'm the proud owner of a Mini One (my first Mini ). I love and cherish this car, its absolutely amazing to drive and makes me smile endlessly.

Being a 15 year old car, it needs some bits and bobs doing to it and I'm sure this forum can provide me with ample advice.

It needs the chrome mini cooper exhaust tip.
U can get one off of eBay.

Anyway welcome aboard I too own a r50 mini one 2002 in pure silver :)

A must on these r50s is a gearbox oil change
Mtf94 or red line mtl

Oh and an oil change wouldn't go a miss
5w30 meeting ll04 specs and an oem oil filter..

I love the car but unfortunately I believe it has been abused and thrashed in the past. This car has had a hard life so it would take a lot to restore it :(. The build date on the chassis says APR01 so it must be one of the very first batches.

Thank you for the tips Minione2002 (nice name;) ) but unfortunately the gearbox makes whirring noises through the gears already.
