Mrs S heard me chatting to the workshop manager at the MD we buy from. Then asked what a bluetooth exhaust and full enhancement kit at mates rates meant. So I said well...... and she asked how much and then said no. My mate Rich and I have hatched a plan to get the mods done when next in for routine servicing. Apparently SWMBO will never notice......

These cars are meant to be tinkered with!

Here’s a gratuitous pic of the current car. Don’t have a pic of the R56 sadly.

Very nice, Andy.

Here's our R56:

Nice. Ours was astro black with red lounge leather interior. Had it 8 years and Mini sold it as approved used as a 10 year old car. Its still going strong with the new owner
