My wife's 2006 JCW w/LSD - the day we picked it up on Sept 2008:

https://goo.gl/photos/gMBGCPYN2hbj22188
https://goo.gl/photos/uWo2PTpPWtKonuir5

almost 8 years later - 125K miles, 2 kids later (ie: 2 car seats in teh back), 1 rear-ender b/c a teenager was texting while driving, and a ton of upgrades later...it is still on the road...52 miles/day commute in wonderful Atlanta Stop & Go Traffic...

I don't think she'll ever sell this car...

Joe

Nice one. Too bad you gotta sell. You have some good interior parts. Good luck with sale or maybe you might change ur mind and keep it.

Nice! How many miles on Charlotte? I bought a garage queen with 8,600 miles after 6 years, then drove it daily for almost 2 before becoming a garage queen again.

I got her in May 2015. with 26000 km (not miles!)... Now, she sits on 29000km+ (in a garage, waiting for salt to go away...).

Nice, clean engine compartment with some great mods... is the Chili Red paint really glossy in there? MINI's usually don't have any clearcoat in the engine compartment and hatch jambs. Also, are those lines for an oil catch can?

Thanks!
Chilli red inside engine bay is not clear coated, just cleaned and polished by yours truly
OCC lines, of course... Here are some phone photos...

Super clean Tata Steva! An inspiration to all of us MINI lovers.

You mean you don't want to put her through this:


In my defense, the JCW is almost always in the garage. I just had it out for a day or two since I was working on the Miata and needed the space.

Nice! It has some cool mods like Wilwood brakes and the JCW alcantara wheel. The One Seven dash is rare, too. Any underhood pics?
