Intro R53Cal 🙈🙈


Hey guys im from over the pond in the UK but love this site so much information!!! Im relatively new to the mini scene bought my little ruby for £1000 which im hoping is a good price for An 03 mcs already made few mods here n there but looking for inspiration aswell!

-full Ramair induction kit
-aftermarket front upper & lower grill
-front gold tow eye
-roof scoop
-larger mTc intercooler
-17% pulley
-performance ignition leads
-colder running spark plugs

Couple stickers here n there aswell (extra 5bhp )

I will be repainting the side scuttle vents black soon and dechroming the strip under windows give it a meaner look

Welcome. Nice looking MINI, although to be honest, not totally sold on the roof scoop. Whereabouts in the U.K. are you? Originally from between Derby and Nottingham myself. Lived here in the United States for 23 years.

Nice Mini. Perfect car for those twisty hedgerows down toward Falmouth and Penzance. Lived in London for two years myself. Welcome to the Forum.
