10' MCS JCW in Socal


Just picked up my new to me 2010 R56 JCW and am already in love. :-)


I had almost forgotten how much fun just driving around could be. Of course I'll probably have to get another job to pay for all the upgrades I suddenly "have" to have.

Congrats,

Does it have the JCW Tuning kit, it does not look like a factory JCW to me. Does look like you have the JCW R105 Double spoke wheels.

Welcome to the MINI community, Greyman! Driving made FUN again! Exactly. I am in SoCal as well, up in the twisties. I enjoy my commute so much now! I even look for excuses to make road trips. Motor On!

Vin id's it as a factory JCW, but it is missing the brembo's up front. Has them in the back though. I'm the third owner, and it was re-built about a year ago after an accident. I figure who ever redid her took those brakes and sold them separate, easy cash. The inside and hatch carry a few JCW badges though. Not sure about everything else.

Interesting, sounds like they might have sold off some of the JCW parts. Post up some more interior and exterior pics and if you need any JCW Brake stuff let me know.

Hey Pheonix!
In the Ontario / Rancho Cucamonga area.

Yeah, that's my theory too. At what a set of JCW front brakes go for, parting those out AND selling the vehicle would be to easy to pass up... lol.. yes, I am very familiar with your selection of JCW brake parts, but the Borla exhaust on your site could not be passed up..
