Can someone tell me what is included in the Sport Package option on a 2003 MCS? Is it just:

Xenons
Fog lamps
DSC
17" wheels

Does it include any change in the springs/struts/shocks/swaybars?

Thanks,

Newbie

 

I do believe that it also has stiffer springs, and swaybar. (someone back me up on that, I could be thinking of the difference between Cooper, and Cooper S ) I think it also includes "sport" seats too.

A side note, the early 03's have stiffer springs than the rest.

Don't forget the bonnet stripes!
No changes to the suspension. All MCSs get the 'sports plus' suspension, which is optional on the Cooper.

 

Is that why mine rides so hard?!!!!

 

No thats why yours handels so well and has almost no body role.

 

Hmmm... mine was a late '03. The sticker on the door says July, so i guess i don't have the stiffer springs. Pooey.

 

Actually, it was the shocks that were changed. At the time there was hue and cry that the MINI was being softened and would soon ride like a '63 Cadillac. All for naught, of course. My '04 rides stiff as ever.

 

Shocks. springs... I was close. I knew it was one of the two, but couldn't remember which one . I do know my dads 05 is abit softer.

Thanks for clarifying Eric
