Tom 164 Posted March 22, 2018 Its probably a cooper S with JCW dealer pack fitted. If its a genuine works car it would have red brake calipers, red numbers on gearknob, bigger air box, different exhaust, full aero bodykit to name a few. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andymc1973 199 Posted March 22, 2018 Got the big air box and number plaque on the engine, full aero kit, works exhaust but no gear knob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tadams 29 Posted March 22, 2018 Its about a £1400 option i think that you can have fitted at any time, i believe its JCW embossed air box, JCW engraved exhaust tips but its the full rear section and a flash on the ECU and there's a sticker in the side of it to prove.

I did have a preview before the auction as I live within half an hour or so and I saw the Mini (same colour, same age) and thought some poor sod has bought that completely unaware that it is absolutely hanging. That one (above) looks well though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
