    just been to see and test drive, a superb looking jcw mini in a showroom in pumpherston in livingston.it had your website details in the rear window.the car has been modded with a pale blue flaked paint, coilover suspension ,intercooler , stailess exhaust, performance manifold, pale blue leather interior,and additional ecu mapping, etc. the dealer is claiming 275 bhp.
    unfortunately the dealer has no history with the car although he says it was featured in a mini magazine 7 page spread earlier this year. the car was originally purchased in inverness.the car can be seen on the dealers website www.brdwd.co.uk
    i wondered if anyone or even the previous owner could supply me with any info on the car?
    and if any one can tell me which magazine and which issue?
    all info greatly appreciated as it looks like my new car.wey hey hey!

    As stated previously the car is well known to people on this site , it was feature car in Go Mini a while back - cant remember the exact issue but will try and find out, unfortunately the last ever issue of Go Mini is due out this month and they have taken their website down already.

    The bodykit and interior retrim are done by Zeemax, and the car was upgraded by an independant tuner to 275Bhp.

    Right found my copy - I can scan it and email it to you tomorrow. Drop me an email to mjsullivan29@hotmail.com. I am sure Fiona will fill in any missing details on her return, but it will be a good starting point for you.
