Nice looking Roadster, probably the rarest Mini ever (except maybe the Paceman which I never saw on the street). Looks like it's an MCS with AT and HK sound. I like it. I never drove nor rode in any Mini convertible. Bet it's a gas to drive.

 

Wow, what a stunner! Love the blue! Welcome to NAM, and is this your first MINI? We have 40 years experience with this brand on street and track. (In fact, we received the first new BMW MINI in the USA).

So, please feel free to ask any and all questions and take a look at this handy maintenance guide:

Welcome! It's tough to post pics from my phone but if you find me on here you'll find your car's near twin! Good choice.

 

Way cool!

Nice roadster I noticed you have grey instrument panel color for the tach and speedo. Isn't that a JCW-specific feature or can you get it on the S? Or maybe I'm colorblind?

The grey instruments used to be unique to the JCW but for the last few months of production all cars got a grey version without a JCW logo.

 

Very cool, thanks for the information Kierphe and spiney I'm curious as to why they decided on that!

 

Probably to carry less different parts as production wound down. They were building all cars including the new F5x models and the R57 Convertible and the R59 Roadster and R58 Coupe on the same line at the same time. Having only one set of gauges in stock would save space and cut costs.

 

Another excellent find. Looks perfect, too. Big fan of the Roadster in blue. I'm guessing since 2015 was the final year of production, they distinguished it with a at least a couple of things not found on them previously. The JCW grey instrument faces without JCW logo and the LED running light rings (halos) around the fog lights. Both were nice touches.
