Installed the JCW aero dynamic kit and a new set of shoes. 18" JCW R109 wheels, took me a while to find them but got them
I also removed the ST coils and went back to running the stock suspension. I just didn't like how the car rode with them. Debating going with Bilsteins in the near future.
Wow the JCW aero kit II and the R109's look nice. The R109 are a true two peices and one the most expensive wheels MINI makes, think they are made by BBS if I remember.
The bilsteins are nice and if you PSS10 they are very adjustable, one of the top next to the KW V3.
Just picked up a 2012 Clubman S this weekend. PW / B, Nav, heated seats, HK, PDC, Xenon, Mini Connected and sun roof. I had an 2003 S hardtop many years ago and forgot how fun these are. Can't wait to start upgrading.
A few weeks ago I purchased a new (to me) 2012 Clubman JCW. The previous owner was a semi-active NAM member. I've mostly driven old BMW E39's and E36's as well as a handful of older Audi's & Saab's -- so a MINI was a bit of a departure for me. I was actually looking for a E90 or a GTi but stumbled across this car. I absolutely love it. It's just so much fun. I love the noise it makes and the point and go handling. I've had a fair share of cars over the years and this one is quickly becoming my favorite. I've already racked up the miles taking it on multiple drives through the Santa Cruz mountains and along the coast. The previous owner did some very tasteful updates including full Integral soundstage+sub and Euro Recaros among other things.

Thanks! The only thing I'm thinking of changing are the wheels. I'm sitting on it for a few weeks to see if the Motegi's grow on me. That and a matching recaro baby seat

Just bought myself a Clubman on the 4th. Went with a Justa Cooper instead of an S this time. It has the Premium Pack, Cold Weather, Xenon's. It's pretty nice. Really liking the color. Seems upscale compared to my Speed-Racer style that I went with on the old car.
The Old one will go up for sale soon. May post on NAM but if anyone bought it would have to be local pick-up or even local purchase.
Getting window tint and some scratches taken care of on the Clubby but in the mean time I am attaching a picture of it. I am calling him Alfred for lack of a better name currently.
