Hi everybody !

I'am Nico, a.ka "Kuma" I presently live in the north of Japan, where I emigrated 8 years ago from France. In an other life, I was the delighted owner of a DarkSilver R56 with lots of JCW upgrades, engine, suspension, brakes ... it was most certainly the car I loved the most. Sadly, I had to let it go.

I had the chance to experience many great cars in Japan, 350z, Forester Sti, Copen, a full tune stroked / supercharged BRZ ... But, still, an open wound was bleeding. I always missed my MINI that I worked so hard for.

A year ago, me and my wife decided that, it was enough, I had to reconcile with it. So I bit the (expensive in Japan) bullet, and signed for a F56 JCW Thunder Grey. I specced it almost the same as my previous MINI with the hope in mind I could make it as focused as it once was.

Here is what "Iryia" looked like when it arrived at the dealer:


And here after fitting of the stripes and JCW pro caps.


For the interior, nothing fancy just functional no unnecessary weight, no harman kardon, no leather seats ... plain and simple.



And so far, it has been a pure joy, BUT ... it had to be personalized a little further, but for that it will be in the JCW section

Thank you guys,

 

That's not a Mini..... It's artwork that can be driven. What a beauty! Congratulations.

 

Nice MINI F56 JCW in thunder gray. Looks fantastic!
