Personal Speedy // DuelL AG MINI Cooper S
A true compact performer that’ll never be forgotten. Following the release of MINI’s new F56, the company has shoved-in a massive 2.0L engine into the new Cooper S engine bay. Bigger and more powerful, majorly support its ever-expanding body size. This leaves today’s R56 Cooper S as the final ‘true compact’ performer with its tinier 1.6L engine and shorter wheelbase. …

Retro-design rules! At least that’s been the case for all MINI’s. With its iconic rounded styling, MINI’s have exhibited a strong ‘two sides of a coin’ appearance; often kinda-cute in stock form, but also very aggressive when modded. Two very different personalities often found among the MINI’s rolling on our streets. Today’s featured MINI, however, has gone through a totally …

Read MorePermaisuri Thursday // MINI Cooper S on HRE
Most people are lured into buying aftermarket wheels because of their good looks. Few others are more concerned towards the wheels’ strength and potential weight-savings.
