hi guys.

thanks for the welcome messages.

i'm quite shy of posting my car because it´s just a normal cooper atm i'm not sure if it has JCW exaust or just the tip (how do i find it out?), anyway here are two pictures.

also, when i will be able to post a new topic? i wanted help about the death rattle, recorded a startup of my car and wanted to know if i have death rattle or not, since mini dealer here never heard of that problem with mini. :/

thanks again.

ah, dark blue and white. we almost went with that color combo. and you did the bonnet stripes correctly, IMO, front to back edge of the hood. Why the bonnet stripes on the new Mini's don't do that is beyond me.

great looking ride you have there !

Nice MINI Vecaly,
You do realize that is NOT just a Mini S, It looks to be a JCW. notice the jcw emblem on the grill and the boot.

It might be helpful if some of the experts could interject with a little MINI emblem 101. Would a Cooper S be tagged with both the Cooper S and JCW emblems? I know that if my Roadster was a JCW, the JCW emblem would be the only marker on it.
