2002 Mini Cooper S - Dinan S2
- 45k miles (About 12.5k miles/yr)
- Purchased May 2002 - I have all the receipts for work...and I am anal about maintenance.
- Always synthetic oil...wash every 2 weeks...2x/year wax...
- It also has a 4 year/50,000 mile warranty.
It is easy to drive, not at all peaky, really goes when you step on it, and handles amazingly. The work Dinan did took a fun car and made it faster, better handling, and actually gave it a less harsh ride. Don't get me wrong, the suspension is stiff, but it is now much more progressive. The only other thing I would do is get non-run flats for it...It would handle even better, and the ride would be smoother.
We would prefer to not sell the car since I finally have it dialed in exactly where I want it...but babies need room!
Work done on the car:
Peak Horsepower: 205 @ 7000 rpm
Peak Torque: 180 lb/ft @ 4500 rpm
