2013 Mini S built to be a cross between GP and JCW spec.
GP - All Aero parts, rear seat delete with oem strut bar, full GP interior. GP rear window with wiper delete.
JCW - suspension, brakes, tune, exhaust, shifter, steering wheel. Probably other parts I don't remember as I didn't build it.
Aftermarket - Quaife ATB limited slip differential.
Mini - stripes for roof and hood. R53 checker boards. Xenons. Many other things I don't remember off hand.

It's a hoot in the snow.

I was told the first owner had some sort of bike carrier, which she kept for her new car.

When you have extra $$ around get a new bumper. Those holes takes away the clean lines of the mini unless you can put something purposeful on it (ei...the previous owner's bike rack)

Got about all the chrome off. Even took off the door handles and stripped the chrome off them.
