Hi All

Thanks for the opportunity to be on this Forum and Learn more about the iconic Mini Cooper.
I’m fortunate to own one of these lovely cars. The 2012 Hardtop Mini Cooper S R56 Automatic with the Peugeot Prince N18 1.6 litre Turbo Petrol engine. Chilli Red with Black Roof and Black Wheels.
Mine is in stock condition except that I use tubeless Michelin Pilot Sports 4 tyres of size 205/55/16 instead of the standard RFTs - because RFTs are not useful in India. It has a non-OEM Magnaflow Exhaust which makes a nice growl.
This car was purchased used from a neighbour, a Doctor who bought it brand new but hardly ever used it.
It had done 33733Kms when I took charge of it in 2019 end-November and I ve driven about 14000kms since I got it. I have invested a good deal of time and money to look after and maintain it carefully and it has been giving me an enjoyable drive experience overall.

I’m looking to learn more and more about this car on this Forum and to interact with you all.
Thanks!
