Finally had time to upload some pictures from my Mini Cooper S Works. Next trip will bring it to the Alps again so after it I can give a good review of the performance increase of the John Cooper Works Tuning. In the meantime enjoy the pictures:

Last week I had the John Cooper Wors (JCW) Tuning installed on my 2007 R56 Mini Cooper S. They replaced the exhaust and airfilter with the new JCW exhaust and air filter and updated the motormanagement software. Output should be around 200 hp now, acceleration is increased a lot especially in 3rd and 4th gear. Haven’t tested the new topspeed yet but it should be between 235 and 245 km/h. Before the JCW tuning was installed the Cooper S got up to 233 km/h on a flat highway with 98 fuel.
Best about the JCW tuning is the new tune coming from the exhaust. Inside the car you can hear there’s increased exhaust volume without getting annoyed but from the outside the car sounds a lot more mature.

Down in Switzerland last week I took some photos of my Mini Cooper S in the beautiful setting of the Swiss mountains.

John Cooper Works released a new aero and bodykit for the R56 Cooper S not to long ago. Now the first pictures of new Mini Coopers with the bodykit surface I think about getting the aero myself aswell. The front looks absolutely fabulous on the Astro black R56 but the rear is not really my taste.
What shall I do?!

Ever since I saw a black mini with black rims I fell in love with that combination. When shopping for a new Mini Cooper S I found out John Cooper Works offered a set of 18 inch matt black rims.
Recently I found a good picture of the rims on a new R56 Cooper S:
The R105 Double-Spoke 18-inch light-alloy wheels come in three variants: matt black, burnished with black cavities or composite and it’s available for all Mini models.
