Hello, new to the forum but not new to forums;-) Just picked up an 06 Cooper S JCW, it has 65k miles and was pampered by original owner. I have a few cars 19 M5C (daily), 15 911 GTS Cab, 21 718 Spyder, 20 X4MC (wife), 21 M340i(son) 20 Jeep Wrangler U (son) ...We bought this car as a family project for us all, my 3 boys, wife and I will be coming up with our list of mods, we will vote then come out with a build plan. Would love any advice or words of knowledge as to what are best to do or not to do.

 

Welcome.

Cheers,

Charlie

 

Wow! Beautiful R53! I recently picked up an '04 R53 with 57k miles as a project car as well, still working on replacing basic maintenance items due to age of the car. Happy motoring though from my MINI and Jeep (Gladiator) owner to another. Best of luck to your build!

 

Congrats on that C&B gem, lot’s of people were watching that one. Some English Leather seats would totally complete that car.

 

Thanks. That is my only nit pick...really, car is a clean and cared for as represented. Maybe a future seat mod is in our future.

 

Thanks! Best of luck to you as well.

 

Welcome, thats super clean.
