What's an MCS MC40?

It's a limited edition Mini Cooper S. A commerative edition celebrating their first Rallye win at Monte Carlo from 40 years ago.

They had one displayed at Nationals.

An MCS with the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit would be da shiz!

Well, originally the dealer was going to add the JCW and the aero kit and ebay that fcuker. Somehow my friend ended up talking them into selling it to him. 2k over helped I am sure.

Yeah, a friend of mine priced out a fully loaded MCS with JCW and the Nav, basically to see how expensive he could make it. I think he was over $37K when he was done. :eek:

Yeah! I just did the same thing. For the most part you can get an MCS really well equipped for a reasonable price. The JCW throws it up quite a bit.

JCW is a waste. You can get the same performance for less than $1000.

I figure it's the equivalent of Dinan though-"warranty friendly" mods.

All you are paying for are basically stickerzzzz and some minor cosmetic mods.
It's geared for the I must have the latest fad.
The JCW is a complete waste of money too.

Like Tom said, you can do so much more with the money.
Warranty shouldn't be the only concern.

I can probably sell our Mini for what we paid for more than a year ago.
