45K must be a expensive chrome wrap. Other than the wrap is this not just a high spec JCW can't be worth the money surely. Anyone like it?

WTF?

MINI Sport had a chrome roof on offer for a while and while it looked OK, keeping just the roof clean would be a nightmare. Hate to think how much Peek I'd go through keeping that clean.

Not my idea of a collectors item.:frown:

Baz, we have those wheels on our red MINI. Look the muts nuts.:thumbs up:

A.:D

I actually quite like it, i wouldn't have wrapped the a or c pillars but such is life. Besides, it's a massive f-u to the blackout everything and plasti-dip brigade.

That mini should be on the cooper protection register and the parents jailed.

aye, not great, but someone should report him for trying to sell something it's not.... MINI don't make a JCW Auto (just ask AndyP and Lenore), plus the exhaust pipes are the normal ones.... I reckon that car without the wrap is about £28/£29k max, so they want another £16ish grand more...! :frown: plus its now second hand, so it's worse even less.... ;)

Was just about to post up as well saying its just an S. Exhaust, auto transmission and not factory JCW wheel as a 2010 would have the steering wheel

As Ian and a few others are saying it is not a Factory JCW as the exhaust pipe ends are that big you could live in them!!!:smilewinkgrin:

Thats a good point about the C pillars. Why on earth would you want to wrap them when they are pretty much hidden anyway. Its one of the things I really like about the Mini - the way the window seems to wrap right round the back of the car.

The r56 ally doesn't have the wrap around glass anymore tho, they have a bit of plastic there now :frown:

oh yeah, quite subtle though. A lot better than silver anyway
