Some much overdue photos of my 2007 MCS

I actually took these a few days after I got it. Installed at this point are H&R springs, Palo Uber Mini 18" wheels with Toyo T1R tires (center caps not yet in place), JCW strut tower brace, and JCW carbon fiber mirrors/hood intake/and trunk piece. I left it there for a week until I could have the clear bra installed.

Next month I will have had it for 3 years. It has only been to the shop once with an unscheduled repair (steering rack was replaced) and I have had the typical campaigns completed. It needs to go bakc in next week for another fluid service before I lose the maintenance part of the warranty.

I will try to snap some better photos in a week or so after I get it back from the service and detailed. It is also about time for some new tires.

The combination of wheels and springs helps.

I looked at HRE's since they are one of my favorite wheels, but the cost was just too high relative to the cost of the vehicle itself. The dealer I was speaking with was trying to get me to do 19's

I use to have 19" HRE's on my '03 MCS.
Just bought a 2010 Clubman S and went with 18's.
Love these cars...
