Newbie to the site. 21 years old from motherwell direction. Had my Cooper S for over a year now. Seen you all at fast and modified last year, I was there with another cruise site. I drive a cooper s, dark metallic silver with aero kit, dechromed, privacy glass, black anthracite roof, twin sunroofs, 17inch bullet rims( took the 18's off - too bumpy) and it is a very cherished little mini. Currently lying in bmw gettin rebuilt after an unfortunate accident with a fox which then led sideways into a pole but I should have it back by friday hopefully.

ps does anyone have any info where the blue cooper s at f&m got the wheels coating and engraved, they look awesome. cheers everyone

I think you may have the exhaust i was ordering for mines a while back. I'm not lookin at the borla system. dont want loud, but something that is deep and has a good rip when u give it some. I used to end up down mfi in hamilton on sundays. not anymore though. was always with a guy with a blue 206 with the big front mount intercooler.

Hi Purdie and welcome to the site. Your car sounds nice, as far as engraving your wheels goes I would not recommend it because you will be affecting the whole structure of the wheel and thats not a good idea, yes it does look cool but I would rather have peace of mind and safety over looks. Thats my 2p worth :yes nod:
