Whilst I still had a few days off before work started I headed back home to fit some of the new parts.

First was the MTC intake hose. Keeping things subtle with black. The fit is ok, not factory which is annoying but it'll do.



The original hose was not in the best condition.


Also fitted the braided rear lines I picked up for the car a month or so ago. No pictures of this as it was a bit of a rush before it got dark.

Fast forward a couple weeks, the mini had it's MOT yesterday...passed with no advisories! My only issue with the MOT certificate was the lack of miles I'd driven.. approx. 2500.

Hi Matt,

Its probably a bit too late but the Mini Cooper S GP2 discs are 330mm.
