So never really done a thread of any of the cars throughout the years, cheap or upper end of my budget but with a job change and opting out of the personal use of the company car due to crazy tax I may aswell start ...
I bought this 2008 Clubman S Cat N (rear passenger side previously damaged) off a dealer a few weeks ago and struck a bit of a deal to take it the way it sits with no warranty.
2008 R55 Clubman S
82k miles
Timing chain kit done in 2019
Factory Options that I know of -
Xenon Lights
Full Leather
MFSW
She’s no show pony but something different for me and parts seem readily available
When things calm down in work it will be going to @Wild Thing for a health check/service/de coke ( still need to give you a call )
Today I replaced the original Mini AGM battery with a Yuasa AGM as the start stop no longer worked and the car didn’t save the time... also gave the battery compartment a bit of a clean while I was at it
Next job on the list is a full wiper replacement, currently fitted with Bosch but on their way out... after a little research genuine mini ones the best way to go because of the curve on the front windscreen so ordered them tonight and awaiting delivery
Will post updates once I clean/detail the car and get it in to shape
