Default Ragnar's Mini Clubman Cooper S

I'll just introduce myself. I'm Ragnar and i life in the low and flattest piece of land in europe. Holland/The netherlands. I was already reading along on this forum. But some people told me that my car should also be post here. So i thought it is time. Hope you'll like my built.

I had some different cars in life. Alfa, VW, Audi, Just bought and never touched anything on wheels/coils/power/looks and feel. This Addiction for modding started 4 years ago when i bought my first Mini. I just wanted to own a car that moves around like a little go-cart on the road. So i thought no family/children so what the heck.

So i started with a Second hand Mini Cooper R50. and after 2 years I got family so we needed a bigger car. But the mini love was still there. So started looking for a second hand Mini Clubman Cooper S. And i found one.

I'll just shut up! and let the photo's do the talking! i'll start with my first mini love and after that you'll see my Mini where i'm still working on.

My first Mini love..




Here is my second,
I found this Mini Clubman to start with..


first mods.. Forge-frontstrut/Cusco RearStrut, Cleaning the rear,KW2-coils








Different wheels.. Tenzo Type-M v2


Different Scoop.. M7-Ram-II




Stopping Power..



Extra Air/Flow.. Forge IC/Samco Hoses/Forge Blowoff/ITG airfilter/Stronger spring BOV.






Roof spoiler..



Camber plates.. Ireland engineering on my KW2's



New wheels.. Work VsXX Ezfida 18"




First Deal with carbon weave..





Different Exhaust flow/Looks.. Evolve catless Downpipe/Different tips.




Another suspension update.. Cobra Evo-III coil-set




And here some pictures from last photoshoot. (you'll recognize another Stancework Buddy,'Ducks')

Supervet!! Hele mooie machine! En die van je maat ook

Was je niet tevreden over je KW set, dat je voor een ander bent gegaan? Niet laag genoeg zeker?

what are the seats out of... and hmm what's the price tag on those?
Ballin' clubman for sure with some really nice and tasteful mods.
Looks like you've become quite good with the carbon process!

Thanks - I thought they were actually genuine audi type seats, hence the price question

Recaro CS are actually pretty sweet
