Hi All,
After 3 1/2years of being without a MINI I've decided to get back on the MINI bandwagon (took me long enough, eh? :D)
After having 3 in the past ((2002 MC R50 (prefacelift) > 2005 MC R50 (facelift) > 2009 MCS R56)) i sold the last one to get a bigger car (BMW e60)...
...tbh although i really took pride in the new one, it never really packed as much 'punch' as a MINI...thought about the Countryman, test drove it, but never took me as much as the originals...
anywho....hoping to sell my current and plan on getting a MINI Cooper S (R53)...always liked these for some reason..
Here are a few things i wanted to ask before just snapping one up;
If i was to get a pre-facelift MCS with xenons, how difficult is it to convert it to the style the facelift models have? (much prefer the projector xenons)
The built-in Sat Nav....any major differences between the prefacelift and facelift
....basically any noticable differences between the prefacelift and facelift???...kinda torn between the two....was on a budget but wanted to see if its worth the extra cost to get a facelift r53...
any thoughts anyone??:confused::confused:
