Great looking car! Horizon Blue is great - cool black accents. When does the turbo kick in?

Obsessed sounds about right! I already have a long list of mods to do . Just installed the BMS Clutch stop a few mins ago. What a diff!

I traded in my 2002 Chile Red R53 less than a month ago for my 2010 Horizon Blue Clubman S. Couldn't be happier with it!

Bam!

Got her for my wife about a month ago but I have to admit I may be enjoying the car more than she is.
Can't wait for more sunny days.

Here's my 09 MCS, I got it last year with 42k and have made it a project to get this thing running correctly! I love this car, so I endure the N14 :D

Sport package, cold weather package, bi-xenon, 6 spd. Piano black / silver int.






It does help tremendously to have a Mini tech in the family






He has helped with all the maintenance stuff, I have done all the other mods myself. It's been an adventure

Plasti-dipped most things
Enkei GT7 17x7.5 w/ Toyo Proxes 4 Plus 215/45/R17
Shrader rear seat delete
NM shifter + cover
H&R 19mm rear sway bar
Prosport 60mm boost gauge amber/white
Alta CRV spring upgrade
Timing chain + tensioner + guides replaced
De-cocking
High pressure fuel pump replaced
NM oil catch can (modified to filter passenger side pcv)
Custom "cold-side" boost tube
Hood latch mod
Disassembled and greased so many pieces of the interior trim I've lost count

My gf drives a 2016 Crosstrek, I'm in school full-time so I do the cheap/used/DIY mods, and I have time to do all of the basic maintenance myself. I have previously owned a 1991 318is 5-spd, a 1998 Golf GTi VR6 5-spd, and a 2003 WRX sedan 5-spd. I have modded and sold them all, most regrettably the BMW. The Mini is my relatively inexpensive Euro/turbo daily driver and I love it!

My 2011 Horizon Blue Cooper, just under 40k miles. Premium Package, STEPTRONIC automatic transmission, Chrome line interior, Chrome-line exterior trim, and Bluetooth and USB/iPod adapter.

Had it about a month - very impressed so far. Added the white bonnet stripes last weekend - almost went for black but decided I wanted more contrast with the blue paint.

Ok I feel like I'm in over my head. I have an 09 R56 that is Horizon Blue Metallic. I live in a suburb of Indianapolis. In all honesty I wish I knew more people with Minis, especially my color. I need some help doing some work on it. I have a dent on the edge of the driver's side door and need a new shell. I named him Herry Monster after Herry on Sesame Street. I would love to get my hood and bumper repainted. Looking at all of the chips in the paint makes me kind of sad.

Sad Day

Traded in Monte yesterday and not for another MINI. Sorry to see you go, but it was time. To the next owner, enjoy driving him as much as I did.
