Question about my 2012 Mini Cooper Clubman Hampton edition

It's a cooper, but has the S hood scoop on it. Anyone know if this is normal?

The scoop isn't normal for a non S Hampton and the wheels aren't correct either.

Everything else is Hampton and the VIN # checks out. Maybe just a mod. I hope it's not from an accident repair.

Yep,

Looks like they took the hampton wheels off and put a quarter panel decal, most people went for the hampton Reef Blue metallic. Also rare offering in the MINI goodwood edition.

Your interior looks to be correct for the Hampton edition.

Where did you purchased it from? What happen to the original wheels?

BTW I have those Hampton edition wheels for sale in 2nd gen for sale section.
