    My mechanic...Steve from "Custom Mini Shop" turned over 200k about a month ago on his 05 MCS. Still has original clutch, tranny, S/C. Cannot recollect any major repairs? The kicker is......he has had both a 16% and a 2% pulleys on for 190k of those :eek6:......so much for the failing crank pulley debate :lol: And then put on the M7 Cosworth head about 10k later :cornut: Still runs like a banshee :crazy:

    My original supercharger went started making noise at 190k, and I am still on my original clutch too.

    Thats incredible.

    Maybe we should change the thread title to "Just a little over 300k" now.
