This is a custom made R60 Countryman system by QuickSilver, a premium British exhaust manufacturer. It was $1600 and has been on my car for 300 miles. The car itself has only done 680 miles total.

It will fit a Countryman JCW All4 or Countryman Cooper S All4, but if you have a Cooper S All4 you'll need to add some tips. My car is a JCW and has them built into the rear bumper bar, so this exhaust doesn't have tips.

You can see it on the QuickSilver site here:

It connects after the down pipe, removing the second cat, the resonator and the rear muffler. The second cat is not monitored, so there were never any CEL problems. It replaces all of that with a single, centre mounted muffler and a free-flowing straight through system. It sounds minimalist, but it's perfectly legal.

The good news (for you): it's awesome. Louder. More raspy. And best of all, it pops and crackles. It's also half the weight of the standard system, saving 29lb.

I've made a video of it here:

The bad news (for me): It's too much for my wife. Turns out she doesn't share my love of raspy exhausts when it's a car she has to drive. So, the exhaust is off the car - I'd rather that than divorce... :-)

That means it's up for grabs if anyone wants it. I'm in no rush - it's a quality system that was custom made to order and this isn't a fire sale so don't embarrass yourself with a low-ball offer. I'll say no. It's already priced crazy low - 40% of its new cost, and it's done 300 miles.

I'm in San Francisco, so it could be collected, or I could ship it. Not 100% sure how I'd do that yet, but if you decide to buy it and need it shipped that can be figured out.

 

Price reduced to $800.

For a $1600 system that was on my car for 300 miles before the wife chimed in, it's a bargain.

 

hello

i have a milltek DP back on my cms all4, and while it does improve performance a little and does sound better than stock, it is still a quiet exhaust, not exactly what i was looking for

interested in a swap?

one thing, do you know if i can buy the tips? i do not have a JCW

Reduced to $650. I want this out of my storage unit now. Incredible value - $1000 less than what i paid. A steal.
