We're new to the Mini scene and are picking up a Convertable next week from Morrisons in Kirkcaldy (it was their demonstrator, so well spec'd up) but already thinking about mods.
First things will be shark gill repeaters and maybe a filter, but thinking about chiping. Read about the one-click, but unsure if that, or a replacement ECU is the best way to go (it's a One we're getting).
Saw you guys a few times at Stirling - we had an MG at the time, so may well meet up at a future run.
Have a look at the latest Go Mini magazine, available from WH Smiths, etc.
Apart from yet another MINI in the US feature, its got quite a bit about replacing the ECU of a One with a Cooper version.
