Congragulations. I just recently checked out a used Cooper S for a fellow CL member.

Those don't look like the stock wheels/tires, though, on your car. The tires seem lower-profile.

I hypermiled to work today....43mpg!!!!



I wonder if gloss black plastic paint would work well on the black plastic trim or look crappy...that stuff is a biatch to detail every time I wash it (front upper+lower grill, rear fascia, sides, door sills, etc, etc).
