Will be making enquiries with our local Quicksilver dealer.
The only perturbing phrase is naturally aspirated ?
Hang on is this not for my car??

I think they are just not keeping up with the F56. Last summer on two occasions MINI sales people told me the base model was non-turbo. Sales guys, right.

I love the performance graph of the new exhaust - the OEM gets a 4 and the Sport gets a 6, but no labels on the axis to give any hint of what they are measuring!

They show the non-s muffler and it appears to exit out the center like an s, not out the left side as you'd expect (and the bumper trim would expect too). Can't see how that will fit, especially with the spare tire well that is on the non-s.

Agreed, no way that will fit the " Justa ". Not only is the spare tire a problem but the bumper would be your next problem. Maybe they haven't loaded the proper pic for the Justa

Dear Diana

Thank you for your e-mail and kind words.

Manufacture of the F56 1.5 'Sport' system for your vehicle is nearing completion and hope to bring to market within the next fortnight or so.

Once I have further information, I'll be sure to let you know.

Many thanks.

Kind regards,

Robin King

Yes, I do agree with some of the previous posts that the info supplied is not for the Justa. Minimania in Nevada is the US distributor and are dropping the ball showing a Cooper S or advertising an exhaust for the Cooper that WILL NOT FIT our Coopers.
Why do we know so much more about our cars that people in the business?
