I have spent roughly 400-500 dollars with Outmotoring since the purchase of my 1st Gen MCS. I have only had one small issue with paypal not working to complete the order correctly, which was solved as soon as I emailed them. Great customer service, and excellent products at good prices. I will continue to shop with Outmotoring for anything I need for my MINI.

Purchased the Red Slat Cover for my 2017 Cooper S hardtop. Dealings with Aaron Cornaby were terrific. Fast communication, fast shipping, excellent product. These guys have my future business and I coiuldn’t be happier with the Red Slat Cover. It’s a really unique trim piece to add some of the JCW appearance to the front end of my Cooper S and it matches the red trim on my black and red bonnet stripes very well. Thanks! Steve

I bought these thinking that they might be cheaply made, but I was really surprised. Instead, I read on the box that they were made in Germany; hence, the reason for the high quality. If you buy these wheel center caps, you will not be disappointed. They are very high-quality.

Synopsis: R series explored
The Convertible MINI was the first MINI Cooper model to be released in base model and S model versions under the same R series designation.

R52
R52 S

In 2004, MINI released a convertible version of the re-introduced MINI. Also a Generation 1, the MINI Cooper Convertible has two doors and front and rear seats. However, the rear of the vehicle forsakes the hatchback of the Hardtop MINI, replacing it with a drop down 'tailgate' that is reminiscent of the classic Mini. It incorporates similarly prominent external hinges. With the roof in the closed position, the rear roof section and luggage shelf can be raised with two handles, semi-tailgate style, to access the luggage space easier.
