^ that is one clean R56 you got there!

 

and the mirrors...

 

And the little chrome ring around your key fob...

 

and the windows

 

mrpumuki - absolutely beautiful...one of the best i've seen...very good detail...Aesthetic Creations makes a nice side marker black decal you might like because it still lets some chrome show...you could also paint the brakes black...but these are minor for such a well-conceived MINI...congratulations!

 

you should check this out, it's already done.

they are illegal in switzerland.

 

The mirors are i hope gonna turn "see thrugh" real soon. No black out for them

 

Thanx for the message.
I bought the black out side marker decal from them, and it didn't look that good so i took them off, i also bought the laser blue "S" decal and i kept does, they look great. For the brake, I just bought the blue caliper paint, but I have no time do them. Might try during the holidays.

 

Nice work! Is that Astro Black, or is it Jet Black? It is really sharp. Are the windows tinted as well? What make is the grill blackout surround?

Does PDC shoot out the front also or just the back?

Real OEM has parts listed for front mounted sensors.

I would never park in such a confined space. I'm too concerned about others not being careful.

 

Parking Distance Control that sounded an alarm in the *other guy's* cabin would be a welcome option indeed.

 

I can finally post in here now!

here's my new R56 S which has just replaced my R50 Cooper. What a car this is!!







My spec is:

MINI Cooper S
Astro Black Metallic
Cloth/Leather Ray Cream White
Sports Suspension
Chili Pack
17" Crown Spoke Alloys
Multifunction for Steering wheel
Chrome line interior
Chrome line exterior
Roof in body colour
Automatic Air Conditioning
Panoramic glass sunroof
darkened rear glass
Colour line cream white
Anthracite roof lining
Interior trim Piano black
Navigation system
HiFi Speaker system
TLC Pack

 

Here's a pic of my 07 MCS Dark Silver. I've had it about 2 months now, and it's basically still stock.

 

Other than the steering wheel being on the wrong side, it looks great! The black & chrome works very well together. Nice options as well.

 

took delivery yesterday

 

Congratulations - Nice mini! Any chance you could post more photos showing various angles. I don't recall seeing CR with a red roof and I would love to see more photos. I am planning to order a CR/B mini the first of the year. Now that I see your red roof I may consider that instead. Thanks!

 

i was thinking the same thing!

drew-great looking MINI by the way................hope you enjoy it

 

well... technically as the Mini is derived from the original Mini developed by BMC, all LHD Mini's have the wheel on the wrong side (and yes, I'm aware of the fact it was good natured ribbing ).

Beautiful car Woody!

 

Just joined the forum so heres the Dangerous Brothers...

Mel the R56 MINI and Mal the Mini, both are turbocharged and both a blast to drive...




Mel is a Cooper S with no fluff (just LSD, DSC 17" Crown Spokes and a sunroof) and is about 6 months old now. Mal is a 1967-1988 (yup really!) Mini city with a GT15 turbocharged 1293 engine.

 

here you go

 

Thanks!!

worked it out there in the end!! Now to find out whats up with my signature...
