Hi guys. So I picked up a 2008 MCS about 3 months ago. This is my first car that was not a Volvo. I have totally betrayed my brand. I set out to replace my aging S40 and wanted a compact hatchback. I spent all day at the dealer looking at Honda's and Toyota's. Then I came across a older green MINI and insisted on a test drive. The more I drove it the more i liked it. But it was too old, I wanted to buy something less than 5 years old. So I looked a bit more, and found my new baby. It was bright, turbo, brickish (I like the square shape) good looks and European. I was sold on the peanut butter leather interior...it was perfect.





I put on new matte black rims had the windows tinted and added a VIP light rack with the Hella 500's. I have a M7 front carbon fiber spoiler sitting in a box and just ordered a a wing tip for the trunk.

I added the AEM cold air intake and a Forge dump valve. Still need to install my Alta boost gauge.

I hope to get a more aggressive hood scoop like the M7 Vortex 2 scoop.

 

My old 242. I kinda like the rally car look.
