John Cooper Works Sports Suspension

Anyone interested in upgrading their MCS suspension with JCW Struts and Springs (Two of Each - Front and Rear) I have a used set for sale.
Installed 4K miles ago. Replaced them with Koni FSDs. I loved the handling with the JCW suspension but my wife's back problems did not.
I am located in High Point NC for local pick up or I will ship UPS Ground.

Asking $575 plus shipping

How do you like the ride with the switch?
Any softer on her back. I also have a sensitive back and was considering
the same FSD's to help soft'n the ride. Please let us know how it went.
It seems no other company makes a soft ride conversion for the mini.

Ok cool, I thought so - I drove a car with this suspension yest., and I was impressed with it on the street. Much quicker response than my stock SS+, and it wasn't bone-jarring.
