Dark Silver, but under an orange, smokey sky brought on by the recent Sand Canyon fires near Los Angeles. (And yes, my camera was properly white-balanced.)

Where have all the cowboys gone?
Wow - This is an old thread!
I have to wonder if any of the original DSM posters still have their Mini.

My '04 R53 (build date 10.16.2003).
Bought brand new 11.22.2003 with 3mi on the OD.
Today - 6.15.2023 almost 19years old, daily driven with 96k mi and counting.












Oil and filter changed every 4,000 mi
Transmission fluid changed every 12,000 mi
Super charger fluid changed every 8 - 10,000 mi
Brake fluid changed every 8,000 mi (from now on)
Regular maintenance as needed.
A fair amount of mods and upgrades throughout.

All that "money" wants

Trying a second attempt at a reply. I started in an ‘02 DS MCS, then a ‘10 DS MCS, but then they discontinued the DS. I needed an upgrade and now motor around in a 2020 MCS Clubbie.
