I absolutely love it, now to start considering mods.....lol

 

Absolutely LOVED mine...miss it.

 

That is gorgeous!

 

Hey guys! Can some of you in the States please check and see if your came with the underbody panels part of the aerokit package?
They are seperate from the diffuser and cover the underbody left and right of the exhaust.
I got the GP diffuser installed and found that I didnt have these panels.

 

Just looked under 424 and it does not have them.

 

Thanks Rikarus!
Just as I thought our cars didn't come with the complete aero kit..

 

Could somone tell me how to figure out what is on 424, I see folks talking about adding the JCW suspension package, but I crawled under and took a look on 424 and it has coil overs, I 'm just not sure if they are the good stuff or regular. The car is badged JCW so I sort of assumed it had all the goodies, but now I am not so sure and want to get to know my ride very well before I go all mod crazy.

Only mods I am really planning up front are an inter cooler, hot side pipe, and some tweaks to the CAI after I determine if its a jCW or not, it says JCW on the cover but has a flat air filter versus the canister looking filter i see in pics of the JCW CAI. Would love a mod that would let me hear the turbo and blow off better, I am fine with the HP but want to enjoy the sound of things.

Anyway, any guidance would be awesome because I am getting cross-eyed from inter netting stuff and getting conflicting info.

Thanks much!!!

You have a genuine JCW, my man. The "flat" air filter is still part of the factory cold air intake. Some CAI have "conal" filters (usually the aftermarket) and some have "flat" filters.

 

Cool! Thanks for the help my friend!

 

Hi everyone,
I've created a Facebook page for the WC50: https://www.facebook.com/worldchampionship50
I've also updated the list of WC50s over the world. So don't hesitate to like it and to share content. Thanks

 

Hi there,

I'm from Thailand, owner of #104. I would like to know if I want the JCW, WC50 Owner Group logo, where can I get it? I would like to have it to do the badge stick in front of my car. Kindly tell me if I can get the logo to make the badge or I can't because of any license.

Thanks a lot,

"P"

 

After I asked for JCW, WC50 owners group logo, I found the quite good quality picture on one website, so I made bold to take that picture and changed something. Then it came out as below.

 

The WC50, like all JCW's does not come with the JCW Suspension, it comes with a vanilla sport suspension. The JCW Sport Suspension, with the red coils is a $2500 addition (including the JCW cross brace) and is the best money you'll ever spend on a JCW.

PS I really miss my WC50

 

I recently purchased #425 from the second owner and now it's in Raleigh, NC. I previously owned a 2010 JCW Hardtop in BRG II, missed it enough to do a fly and drive on the WC50. It was one of two Mini JCW's in "Green" that I could find in the US.

After reading through this thread, I knew this one was a good buy

 

Congrats. I was the first owner of #425. How many miles does it have now?

 

Just over 28k. Looking for new shoes now.

 

Hi gang. I have a set of original WC50 bonnet stripes available, brand new in box. Offering them up here to the WC50 owners before posting in the general marketplace. Asking $100 + shipping. Please send a private message if interested.

 

I just purchased a 1996 911 C4S (my dream car), and now must think about selling my WC50. I LOVE this car, but having x2 cars in San Francisco is just silly.

Im wondering based on previously sold cars, what I could be looking at for a sale price? If the value is too low, maybe I could find a way to hold onto him, but again that seems silly. Tough problem to have I know......

Any input is appreciated, car breakdown is below:

MINI WC50 #439
9956 Miles
JCW Suspension Installed
JCW Shift **** Added
Full 3M Front / Back
New Michelin Pilot Super Sports
Cravenspeed Flexpod
Cravenspeed Dipstick
Mini Dealer Installed Software (Torque Steer Fix)
JCW Indoor Cover

 

Hmmm. This is very tempting. I've seen them priced about the same as any 2010 JCW when going for resale. Please send me a pm when you have a price in mind.

 

Are you going to sell? I sold mine a year ago and now and I miss it a lot.

 

Ill be posting it tomorrow, Ive been away for work for a bit. It s going to be sad, but it will make someone happy. Seems like everyone who has sold theirs regrets, or at least misses the car dearly.

 

OK, a bit of a sad day, but the car is listed for sale in the Marketplace:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...956-miles.html

 

Car SOLD to the first guy to look at it on Sunday. Im going to miss it, but he seems like a great new owner!

 

Wow, that was fast!

 

Hi all,

Proud new owner of #439 here, saying hi!

Unfortunately a sad day for my first post, as this morning Jack Brabham passed away. He won the World Championships with Cooper in '59 and '60, pushing the out-of-gas T53 across the finish line at Sebring in '59 to win the first championship. He's also the only one to win the F1 title in his own designed and built car, in '66!

So let's motor today in honor of Sir Jack
