Great looking polished car, great job. Not a fan of the rear spoiler, but it’s how it makes you feel. Definitely go for black wheels gloss or Matt. We got a Mini Cooper s 2007 and it has been mapped and super fast now.
Looking good mate. I’d paint the wheels gunmetal personally as that will be pukka , black will look to dark with the paint. Also I would take the spoiler off it’s a bit big but personal preference. Good job mate👍
Take rear spoiler wing thing off and sell it on. Put original cooper s spoiler on and keep it as original as possible. These wee cars are going up in money so the more original the better in terms of asking price and profit. Just my opinion but that's the way of the market over here in Northern Ireland. You should take it to a mini meet for a video and see if there's any interested buyers and keep us updated. Looking forward to more videos dude!
If it was a JCW, you'd have a point about keeping it as original as possible, but a normal R53? Bit much to be saying keep it stock when it isn't some absolute minter example.
Spoiler looks ok looks like a mod a mini one they are pretty decent kit, look at a mini dismantler like le mini for some used parts I managed to John cooper works area side skirts in black from them. Also think about getting the areo front grill gloss black is a unclip clip in part but makes a big change. I wouldn't go to mad tunning beyond a smaller pulley and airtech intercooler colder plugs etc
Fantastic that it has been looked after but the amount of repairs that had to be done just proves that overall the series 1 new mini cooper s were rubbish. That is general consensus, they improved with the turbo models
Sorry but you obviously know nothing about Mini’s! The next Gen R56 Mini was far more unreliable than the supercharged R53. BMW partnered with Peugeot for the engine….and that’s all I need to say!
Thanks for the message, I'm back strong in January. Haven't bought any cheap cars as market is so expensive right now but .. S5 is at phoenix automotive technology having the carbon walnut clean so will be back for content. Sold the mini and bought a A6 so will be doing some videos and hopefully car prices will carm down and I can get some deals to flip.
Take the spoiler off kid. Its shite Then again I'm 49 so I don't like anyone or anything anymore!!! Nah seriously I like cars that look standard with non detectable mods. Like my 2.4 Alfa Romeo 156 that looks bog standard but certainly isn't
Should run a long time, good luck with it.

Nice motor I had the bright blue Cooper s supercharger one great bit of fun

With that history it's a great find top man
Car is looking good bro Iv just bought a r53 as well with lots of parts on it. Not sure what to do with it yet
Really nice mate. Seems well looked after
Looking good mate. I’d paint the wheels gunmetal personally as that will be pukka , black will look to dark with the paint. Also I would take the spoiler off it’s a bit big but personal preference. Good job mate👍
Car looks amazing
Great video
I would tint windows and front lamps. Paint wheels gloss black and spoiler would look way better then now. 👏 well done looks great.
Mini looks really good and I like the rear wing 👍
I love these videos mate your doing an awesome job with your channel keep up the good work buddy

Great little car but me personally hate the wing. Is your car though mate so you do what you want to it :)
Nice MINI :)
What did you get for the clio in the end
Clutch was slipping so a scrapped it for 250
Mate ? Where is the product list 🤔😂, but anyways great video
Looks really good great shine I would stick to the original spoiler what compound polish did you use
3m fast cut then sonax 6/3
Thanks really enjoy your channel

I love that spoiler
What compound are you using with the polisher bud?
3m fast cut and sonax 6/3 after
@@drivewaylife thanks mate, my r50 had the same swirls and will get on that in the morning
I think I prefer it without the wing to be honest
It will look even better once you have given it a good valeted.
Very nice car. Personally I wouldn't have the spoiler though, I don't like the look.
Gorgeous car! Come on guys and girls spread the word! 500 subs to go!
Hate the wing… get rid of it. But awesome car👍🏻
Nice colour and wheels but personally I love the original Mini ,must be my age 48 🤣
Wing is way too tacky for me. But it is what you think that matters.
The car needs the correct side indicators fitting as the ones you have are not cooper s ones.
Lower coilovers and stage tune
Make sure you attach a fridge to the gearbox as they're made of chocolate
That's the one service record I don't have 😅. Hopefully it will be fine
Leave wheels do calipers so they pop

This is an 18 year old car... You are chatting complete and utter rubbish!!!
The N14 engine is the worst ever made. Timing chain and direct injection are the weak points.

Hope everythings ok? Channels gone a bit quiet lately

Take the spoiler off kid.
Its shite
Then again I'm 49 so I don't like anyone or anything anymore!!!
