What a great car the R53 Cooper S is!

[Kevin-sz0nv]

I am fortunate in having some nice cars but I wanted a cheap run around especially for the winter. I ended up paying £1500 for an 05 Cooper S with 133k miles but with a very good service history. The car had the bigger pulley, coil over suspension, factory sat nav, reversing sensors and a sports exhaust already fitted. It really does go and sounds brill. As usual I changed it a bit by putting on some proper tyres I bought a cheap 2nd hand interior cos I really don't like all black and I had the roof, wheels, mirrors and bonnet scoop painted red. I covered the rear boot lift in red also the chrome trim surrounds under the windows and headlights. I then added some red door handle and fuel cap covers and painted bits of the engine. Inside I got a 2nd hand armrest and painted the dash etc in the grey to match the body, a new gear knob and some other bits and bobs including the door logo lights that were a straight swap I've had it 6 months it passed its mot recently no issues and nothing has gone wrong.... Love it!
