Got my 2010 JCW Clubman....

Well, I got a 2010 JCW Clubman to replace my Honda CBR1000RR that I was using as a daily driver. Decided that I needed to stop using the motorcycle as a daily since I live in SoCal and the freeways are friggin dangerous. Plus been giving my wife a heart attack everytime I would go out. I needed a car that would still have some of the fun of my motorcycle.

I must say I am very happy with my new Mini.... It is a Dark Silver with Silver top Clubman. Now, I am very much wanting to just go crazy with mods but do not want to ruin my warranty quite yet.

First thing is first.... Need to get more instruments becuase I like to know my Boost, Oil Pressure, and Water Temp... Plus I need a better mount for my Garmin Nuvi.... Off to surfing the Mini aftermarket sights....

BTW, my sister loves my Mini so much she is buying a Cooper S in Pepper White with a Black top....

Congrats!! I got my 2010 Clubman S a few months ago too. Being a former biker, I can relate to the dangers of riding them in SoCal.

For my Nuvi, I got a Craven mount and it's worked well.

Also as for being Mod Happy...check this out. On June 29, I picked up my new Clubbie (this is my 3rd MINI since 2003)


Here's how it looks today, not even 2 months old yet


You can see my Nuvi 360 mounted to the right of the tach here and my Valentine V1 remote display on the left, along with my modded JCW steering wheel.

We'd love to see pics of your Clubman! DS is a great color.

Check out Way Motor Works for your modding needs. Give Way a call...he'll be glad to discuss some options with you.
