    Hello again, I've been gone for some time, I know... Between a toddler, work, and life in general... Just been hard to hop on the forums.

    Anyways, as of this evening, I no longer have my justa-cooper... Instead I have an "experienced" 2010 Clubman S with low miles and very nice options. We've missed the "original" clubman for sometime, and the justa was getting a little long in the tooth mileage wise.

    Anyways, pretty stoked and looking forward to showing her off to y'all soon! These pics are terrible... But it was late and somewhere around 4degrees... So colors are CR/S and chrome scoop (can this be changed?)

    Rob, nice Clubby! What do you want to change... The hood scoop or the silver?

    The chrome hood scoop. Wasn't sure what kinda job that would be. No rush; but not sure I'm a fan of the chrome.

    Also; may swap out the 17" rims for 16" (can't decide that yet either;just look huge to my eye); and next to decide what to add vinyl-wise to make her unique. And to figure out what are the S-mods I should start looking into (catch can?)

    I wasn't thinking that you were that close to pulling the trigger when we were messaging back and forth the other night! Looks like you got LRW's more powerful sibling. I bet a CR/S checkerboard roof would be unique.

    Hey Robb cool beans.:Thumbsup: Yep LRW rides again, with boost! Checkered roof would look pretty cool & after all that's your family crest isn't it. Looking forward to seeing it in person, along with its family.

    Am I right in thing since clubster production is ending you wanted to snap one up before all the speculators got them? :D

    Nice new ride and I agree with you on the chrome scoop. That has to go.

    Remember chrome does not get you home. Just ask any Harley guy on the side of the road. :rolleyes5::lol::lol::lol:

    Robb, I have a set of R84s [16" v-spokes] I am not using and the wife likes her 17s. I was going to put snows on them for her, but she doesn't like winter driving and leaves that up to me since my S has snows. So, if you are interested, let me know. They have Kumho ASX all seasons on them right now [215-50-16], used, but not totally gone yet. I'm not interested in a trade, though. You're welcome to come over for a looksee. The hubcaps are also included.

    I may be interested in those wheels, if Robb is not.
    I need a winter set for my wife's car.

    You're gonna have to fight the donut king, Crashton, first, if Robb doesn't want them.:devil: Crashton still has that "need for speed"!

    Yep; there will be some checkers coming (family-crest as it was stated!). Just trying to visualize. I'm sure something will be on by the dragon!
