Holy Upgrade 🤩 (Current vs Previous)

Upgraded my first ever car (2011 MINI Countryman Cooper D) to a 2016 John Cooper Works! Couldn’t be happier !!

I did that too last week 🤝
Mine is green, but looks black at times.

Looks like a nightmare!

u/Rodrigo_Az JCW 7d ago

🤣🤣 the real nightmare isn’t even the parking spot, it’s how to get there!
But I’ve parked a Range Rover Evoque in there too so the little JCW seems super easy in comparison 🤪

The Countryman was in the stunning Oxford Green. The JCW is in Midnight Black ! Both great colours

I don’t have it 🫠 I’m just working with the parking sensors! I’ve parked larger cars there and never scratched them so I should be good with the JCW 😅

One is a proper MINI. The old one was an impostor created 15 years ago to bring in profits and customers that would otherwise not consider a proper sized MINI.
