R55 Clubman JCW

[phil_c]

Decided a few weeks ago that this itch needed scratched
Started looking and found this in Chester

2013 R55 Clubman John Cooper Works
52k on the clock
FSH
And only two owners from new!

I flew over on Thursday morning and picked it up, then drove to cairnryan (to get myself used to it)
Not much planned at the minute, just gonna tidy a few bits and pieces up.

Beautiful….these just seem to get better looking with age. Health to drive

There was one for sale in the last week which had a lot of money poured into it with many OEM upgrades. A few pictures in case it gives you any ideas

Yes I saw this one. It’s nice, but I thought I would go for lower miles and the n18 engine. Plan was to leave it as is, but started to look at mods already

So, I just couldn’t buy a new car and not do anything to it…
Genuine replacement center caps to replace the corroded ones!

While I was there I gave the calipers a bit of a clean.

What a pair to have! HTD. Quite a bit of the carbon stuff is still available, Prentice had a few scoops and mirror caps last time I was in

Small update today. New number plate on!

Couple of updates this week, black grille and changed the lights for a set of black bi-xenon’s. Seems to be the start of a slippery slope
