Welcome to NAM and congratulations on the purchase of your R53! Looks like it's in pretty good condition. How many miles are on it?

New MINI Owner

Looks like you have a cold intake filter already installed. Good start. Now add a Sprint Booster (free shipping on our site). Engine looks very clean!

Happy Cyber Monday at minimania.com

The headlights are the same, its the paint option (silver roof) and graphics. Then maybe the interior dash color and seat option.
