first step in a mini

Hi there, Just got my Mini Cooper S JCW. I got it coz it it stands for all the opposite things that my other car do, which happens to be a 03 hummer H2 . the mini was on my mind for a while now and after researching the market for the alternatives, I found that there is no better than a mini (small, fun, practical and the name will last forever)
I'm just getting the hang of it around here and looking to post the pics and keep you all posted on upgrades, but I need lots of advice on that field, I just don't want to throw all the JCW upgrades away... don't know where to start or what to do . but that's how we start. catch me on the freeway going 220 Kmh

Nope.

I was refered to Assael in Monrovia. Nick Armstrong was my salesman, and he was great.

let's say that we will go 220 on the track, it's more fun anyway

Hello Ca$per...sounds like a pretty sweet ride! I'm hoping that I can put a JCW package in my MCS convertible one of these days. Have fun...it will really make a great counterpart for your H2.
