Ducks DS MCS
It all started in the beginning of May '08. I was looking for a new car as my Opel Tigra was falling apart. What to get? My first idea was a 3 series bimmer. But the problem was if I wanted something fast it would cost me a fortune. So why not a mini.
I booked a test drive with a Cooper S. And when I took it for a spin I was sold. It tried to kill me off the line with it's torque steer. I almost ended up in a ditch, but I like my cars with a little bit of madness  So I got all the brochures en started going through the option list. This is what I came up with: Model: - Mini Cooper S MF71 Color/Upholstery: - Dark Silver Metallic - Leather Punch Carbon Black Options: - Automatic start/stop - DCS III - Sport suspension - LSD - No badges - Chrome Line interior - Black roof - Chrome mirror covers - Tinted glass - Center arm rest - Color line dark gray - Roof lining dark gray - Interior panels brushed alloy - Sport button - Bi-Xenon - Automatic air conditioning - Navigation professional - Speech control - Hifi sound system - Bluetooth handsfree kit with USB audio interface - White turn signals - Chilli package Accesorees: - Full JCW Aero - R113 black/polished This is how I got it without the Aero (back order) in the beginning of August:  In the last few months a few things got changed: - Lowered 3cm - 15mm spacers - Black mirror covers - Black belt line - Aero - m7 Splitter - JCW Stage I tuning (207bhp/295Nm (A bit more then the brochure states ))And this is how it looks today:     There is a nice todo list, but all in due time

Beautiful mate! I see the Chrome mirror caps were quick to go.
 She looks great.

Today was the day. I was going to mount the m7 diffuser. It was -1 centigrade outside but the sun was shining so why not. But what the f***. It doesn't fit. For some reason the rear bumper mount on the m7 car is different on my car. No way it's gonna fit. So I checked realoem to see if the US spec cars have a different bumper mount, but it's the same as mine
 Oh well, at least I got to stay inside and not freeze my ass off

It's part nr 1. On the m7 car it has an extra ridge on the underside that my car doesn't have. The clamps for the diff are mounted on that ridge.
