Thanks, but IM asking specifically about 2013MCS.
As the NGK catalog only sates for up to 2012,

Searche, but have not seen anyone use them on a 2013.

There is no difference in the engine of an MCS between 2012 and 2013, I don't know why NGK says it's only up to 2012 but it'll be safe to use on the 2013 Hardtop (R56) MCS, 100%.

2012 Had an N14 motor along with an N18, 2013 didn't have N14.
Hence the NGK for 2012 (N14)

So you have a 2013 N18, and NGK plugs in yours?

I'm still under warranty so the last spark plug replacement has been with MINI OEM plugs, I think they are Beru? If I were out of warranty, I would use the NGK's that you are looking at.

One of the reviews in the amazon listing above confirmed compatibility with their 2011 MINI Cooper S hatch which has the N18 engine. I really believe they will work on your car.

If you would prefer OEM, the Beru here are the ones you want:
