Hey Nathan, did you ask the nice man if he knew Cooper? Were you checked for skittles? Glad you got off with a warning.
I never heard of that before..... :cornut: Oh, and this response is something my husband would have sent :lol:
Weather was nice today, brought mine out of hibernation, added my license sticker to the rear plate and blasted over to Harbor Freight. Exchanged some of my hard earned dead presidents foldin money for a cheap chinese made tool...... Yippie.....
Stopped by a friend's and helped him clean out his rafters. Chucked some old pipe from GP #0280 in the back... :wink:
:cornut: My Son and his girl friend took me out to eat. They paid and I drove MINI Margi (all 3 adults) and was the designated driver. Great time. Jason
Correct, exactly that is in the box. Aaron at outmotoring set me right :wink: Ahhh, you don't want to be up here in northern Vermont, it's all frozen and yucky right now.
You know the kewlest thing about the full JCW exhaust I was able to buy... I dropped by our soon-to-be NEW MINI dealer in Shelburne, VT at the Automaster, and was talking with a friend of mine who owns GP #0280. I mentioned that I needed a new exhaust, my original drivers side stock one on my 2006 R53 that has 49k miles on it has a split in the seam. He said he has one... "off your GP?" I asked (at this point my head was spinning inside - now I don't need to buy the Milltek - OMG a JCW, krickey!). He said, "Yup, I put on a Borla, it sounds so good now. You can swing by and pick it up, I need a propshaft for my Land Rover I'm building". I said, "no problem, ill order one right up for you". I made him a good trade and stuffed it in! When I was ordering our R53 new I had the choice of several options to buy, of course the full JCW kit was at the top of the list unfortunately, all the other items I wanted were on the list too. Darn, hate it when the MoF gets in the way... I thought, if I didn't buy the R90s and aero kit front end at delivery, I new I'd never get them later on. I did want the JCW exhaust but thought, I'll just buy it when mine wears out. Little did I know that MINI would be NLA on this part. Sometimes, things just fall in your lap when you least expect it, AND so locally! Should make for a nice upgrade between the JCW exhaust and Brembo sports brake kit. At least I made it to almost 50k miles on my original brakes.
