I picked up my '03 MCS from Habberstad Mini in Huntington Station, NY (Long Island). It is everything I expected and more! I especially love the NAV system (I named the sexy British female "Gracie&quot. Here's a pic and a page:

Great looking wheels! Now all you need to do is finish your garage off like a MINI SHOWROOM!

Happy Motoring!!

Great pics on your web page! Better sweep the leaves out of your garage - you wouldn't want to drag them into a nice clean MCS!!

I heard that you can get more power if you remove the cat:

This car is mouthwatering. Mmmmmmmmmmmm Mini. My S will have the same color combo. 163 horses under the bonnet, and now a cat. What an upgrade!

The photo seems to give an entirely new meaning to "cat back" exhaust mods!!!

One thing I don't understand is that I see so many photos of really great vehicles parked in garages that do not even have a single coat of the cheapest white paint on the walls. What is up with that? I can't imagine that people spend so much on their cars and homes that they cannot afford to pay a child to slap on a coat of cheap white paint in the garage.

Other than that little beef, your MCS is gorgeous, I want it, and you better keep it locked up at all times. :smile:

Ok, ok. I was wrong with my crap cat/ horse joke but the cat back system takes it too far. That is so bad, it is funny. I wonder if it purrs. Sorry.
What's the weather like over in the U.S. at the moment? It is horrible here.

Lucky. I sometimes see people on this site mentioning the local Mini dealerships and it makes me sick to read about people in Florida, California, Hawaii etc when I live in this cess pit called England. I am coming state side soon though. Just booked a holiday/ vacation to Orlando and cannot wait. It'll be my 9th time I have visited your country.
