was yours a full factory fit works if it was it should have works brakes and suspension but other wise you would have had to spec them speratly for dealer fit but on the colour all the GP's ive seen have had red springs also if yours has works suspension it should have red anti roll bars as well i think (not sure on the roll bar colour thow tbh)

Note: I didn't spec the car, but, i'm sure it was explained to me that it had the suspension package too

Yip ,engine and exhaust are standard ...the rest are costly extra's ,Breaks and Suspension are not a package together .

My JCW Suspension has RED springs all round and the Shox are JCW Logo'd - as in Angus's picture. (He's a veriable MINI Picture Library. Conan The Librarian! Angus, where do you get all the wee MINI cartoons etc?

Alan - nip in to the dealer and get them to print off the original factory spec sheet - it'll confirm what was ordered.

Angus - Re Cartoon, that would be good, but as a 'Graphicy Person' myself I'm keen to know how it all works!

I know the brakes became part of the factory-fit JCW kit, but as far as I was aware the suspension remained dealer-fit only
