Thanks for the confirmation.

Kind of a bummer about them dammit!

May try Schmiedmann at some point, was surprised that freight charge seemed reasonable,
went ahead and did a dry run checkout on the link you provided and the quote was $64.

Have read positive review of them on BMW forums (also sprinkled with bad reportage as well tho) and they used to advertise in Performance MINI print magazine.

Would be a good source for euro-only stuff too I'd reckon, or even stuff that was available over here but now hard-to-find-or-actually-get like the recent experience I've had attempting to find a small simple dummy plate...

:

One dealer has already cancelled my order with no real explanation,
but then updated their site to say under this part number "backorder"
so it must be on the way out or gone altogether,
may be more common in Europe with a few sitting on the shelf somewhere?

Ran that part # thru S-mann just now to see
and they don't have it in stock either...

Hello,

Based off what we can see, many in Germany, no block as of now

Likely someone took the offer which was probably sent to all the watchers.

Best current price for a new one is from bmwpartsworldwide but as far as I know they are no longer a MINI dealer and they cancelled my last order which was several months back, does anyone know if they are still actually dealing in MINI parts?

If they ain't then I wish they'd remove that portion of their site because it is like an unlawful taunting and gives me slight trauma because their pricing is parallel to my old beloved local dealer MINI of Kennesaw and man do I miss them!

I develop the list purely off where i have seen the cars with the ability to tie it to the vin, and rely on people registering their kits, so i think you may be right and someone has made a whoopsie, if you flick me a PM or submit a registration ill make sure it gets corrected, and ill contact the person who entered it wrong, although normally i request pictures before the car will get registered on the list, so wondering if someone has slipped one by me-

I have the last R52 body kit and the JCW sill, i got the last set. Also i have the last set of Leather Gen 1 red stitched down tubes that were for the GP1 at one point.

What door panel, they are not one piece? "amber euro taillight kit with rear fog" Those are the ones i have on my R52 ;) I got the last set in the world also. Bunch of them sold out in a week or so.


Got 3 of these then nla worldwide.

Update - these are now NLA. We had the last ones new in the world.

...more MINI CHALLENGE stuff:

the series is still going strong, and running with the older R50/R53 heritage models in certain classes

saw this video today from 2022 and reminded that all those racecars consume lots of aero parts


ECSTuning 03-03-2023 02:00 PM

Hurry up and grab those parts that fly off. LOL

Yes we have some of the bumper stuff and trying to get more.

Jonny 03-03-2023 02:17 PM

Wish we had that type of MINI culture in the states. Dibs on the aero grilles 😝

I just became a member today fun group!
got a 04JCW in 10/22 now with 137k miles
has been so fun daily driving… but have had to do some minor and major items to it and now have loud rattles always (bad SC/WP?) appreciate any help, tips, parts. Did take the old white stripes off and like better. Was happy to see good paint was good looking afterwards. Kept one on back for now. In the SF North Bay.
thanks!

Nice color coded aero kit on there. I see new wheels in your future, if those are 18”, you’ll appreciate 17s better ride, and they look better on the car. Loud rattles could be lots of things, but cheapest and most common first, chain tensioner, it’s DIY. And definitely subscribe to this channel
Is the color Indie Blue?

Just adding this Japanese tuner to the mix since this thread has cited so many different rocker cover plaques.

The garage is still in business too.

Been a while since I've looked at used car listings, but this morning had the compulsion and came across this which just might be the most expensive JCW that I've seen due to the heavy option list.

Seen here:

https://canyonstateclassics.com/vehi...n-cooper-works

In my opinion, if it was a lifetime Arizona car then the asking price might be worth it, but the car spent most its life in NJ so there's inevitably some rustiness yet pretty clean considering.

The rather odd thing is that it was bought as an S and then had the JCW conversion via dealer which seems would be unusual in 2006.

The dealer install list has almost all of the JCW accessory boxes checked:

Spec upon port arrival:

All done,
the final price including accessories + installation of accessories + sales tax = $52,337.78 :eek:

^^^ Agreed, high asking for mileage and Carfax location history, despite currently being advertised in AZ (just a few miles from where my R53 sat in dry storage until mid-2021). But as we've seen routinely on BaT listings of all types, many aren't meeting seller reserve and thus not sold. Gallery pics on this one do show "minor" undercarriage corrosion and evidence of leakage stains too. Perhaps relatively normal for age and mileage but a significant factor in fair market value nonetheless. This one as-built in Oxford was a nicely optioned S-spec with the only performance related option being LSD and then the very spendy (desirable and rare now) dealer add-on stuff subsequently. OTOH, $22k doesn't buy nearly as much in 2023. Unlikely we'll ever know what this actually sells for... :no:
