Cool, we got the MC40 here in the USA, but we did not get the Gen 2 R56 version, some other countries got it.

Saw one at the dealer 2 weeks ago and it actually looks better in person, I have to say I kinda like it even though I'm not a sticker guy.

Just bought on. The spec is great, with a lot of JCW parts; exterior bumpers and side aero kit, JCS racing seats, steering wheel, cloth seats (that I love, the butt warmer is instant), and light weight 17" wheels. The single bonnet stripe has the license number of Paddy's MINI embossed in it, as well as a signature atthe bottom of the stripe. Then most if not all of the Signature features. Still breaking in. I feel a little self conscious of the numbers on the side, but he'd it is already a stand out MINI with out them.

Here are more details, and a cool short video: https://www.miniusa.com/model/specia...79fa%22%7D%5D&

Love it all including the side number....Congratulations!!!!

.For me with MINI, it’s all about standing out in the crowd. Every Subie, decked out Honda or GTi looks like every other Hot Hatch out there all bearing “cookie cutter mods”.

I’d buy one of these in a heart beat, but between Covid19 making a dent in my income and lack of low financing from BMW, it just wasn’t in the cards....

Motor Safe !

I pick one up Monday. I added black surround and might go with rally lights. Wish it was an Iconic version but love the looks.

Hi everyone,

I took delivery of my Paddy Hopkirk Edition in February from MINI of Westchester.

I believe they had four in-stock (2 manual and 2 automatic). I went with the automatic since certain parts of NY has heavy traffic areas.

I came from a ‘19 Cooper S Iconic and they transferred my 501 Track Spoke wheels and Michelin Pilot Spot All Season 4 tires.

I really like the silver wheels over the black since it resembles Paddy Hopkirk’s MINI a little more.

Rich

PS this is Scarlet
