    Yes, pretty fresh with only 36k miles on it. Oh, also when I bought my R53 new I had the JCW intake installed, the odometer was at 11 miles at delivery. Wonder what other item I should do to compliment these two? 15% pulley and Jan tune?

    Of all the R53 exhausts I have heard the JCW is the best for me. I think you will really be happy with it too. It weighs a lot less that the stock system. By all means do get a 15% pulley. You will ask yourself why did I wait this long to do that. A tune is a great idea too! :Thumbsup:

    Couldn't resist the nice weather. Had to wash the MINI's. Especially since it was raining Sat. when I officially took deliver of "silverback".

    I knew I would need to wash it right away.

    Man is that car fun. :cornut:

    Not looking forward to letting my beloved R50 go :nonod:

    I thought Mark would have thrown in lifetime car washes with the JCW. :smilewinkgrin:

    The R50 is one sweet looking MINI. Someone will get a nice car when they buy it. :Thumbsup:

    No free washes here. CHKMINI III is going to keep this Silverbacks wash bucket busy just as CHKMINI I did.

    Did you order black?
    I keep telling myself no more black cars every time I wash mine.

    Black is beautiful, if you can keep it clean. I love it, but I'm too lazy to own a black car again.

    Owning a black car is exhausting, but it looks awesome for the 5 seconds it is clean... :D

    If you're riding in a Coupe it's either driver or shotgun ;-)
