Finally got the Mini today.
For those that remember I picked up the BRG MCS today. He came down on the price to cover repainting the quarter panel.
Just drove 60 miles to work and no problems. The Bridgestone RFT does get loud on the highway though.
I believe in cutting the required maintenance windows in half so I’m going to order the,
Bentley manual, Plugs and Wires, Cabin filter and Supercharger Oil.
Then get the Craven strut tops and maybe the Dinan CAI and smaller pulley.
The only issue I’m not sure about is the power steering fan. I can get just the cover or replace the whole unit with the updated model.
If anyone has further advise please let me know.

Congrats again on the purchase ddawson!
The SC does not pick up oil from the engine oil pan, it has it's own dedicated oil that isn't necessarily a quick and easy drain and refill unfortunately.
