R53 OC Southern Meet

[@RedLP5000S]

Nice to see the R50 and R52 mixing it with the R53s.

[@JSchroederee]

I'm so happy people are keeping these cars alive. I loved my but after 10yr of the dumbest repairs, I gave up. I miss driving it but then my subaru actually starts when I turn the key and I miss my r52 a little less.

[@colinnutley6428]

We're lucky enough to own an R53 Cooper S which has been improved over the time we've owned her. Next meet, give us a shout!

[@waterlover]

[@205nd]

love my R52 but the fact that the steering pump whine is louder than a lot of the idles is so hilariously R50 series

[@Medes06]

Love that mini

[@jenBaker707]

R53 is the Best

[@JohnClark-ew8dh]

New to the Mini scene having just bought an R50 so appreciate not quite the same. What type of rear wing is on the black Mini at 0:58 please and can they fit the R50 series?

[@kylewaddington1983]

Are they boys or girls driving ?

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

Strange question, but both.

[@legendkhanproductions5263]

Wait till you see my mini cooper one of the best inside and out.

[@russjam121]

Nice crowd of minis. Shame that the club needs a lot of work with their attitudes however especially within the admin/mods.

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

I’m not sure I can agree on that. I’m in a lot of Facebook groups for cars and other hobbies, R53OC is up there with the better ones.

[@jayteey3743]

Sorry you feel that way! I currently own a Type R but am in the R53OC and honestly the amount of humor and banter i see within the posts is one of the main things that makes me want an r53 again. To be apart of that community. Type R group is TOXIC. VXR's Groups are Equally as bad, sometimes hit or miss and VAG groups are just disgusting. Honestly do think the R53OC is one of the better groups out there tbf.

[@Fordfocusstmk3250]

Any local meets soon bro? Just bought an r53 and based in South London thankyou

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

Look up R53 owners club on Facebook. 😎👍🏻

[@Fordfocusstmk3250]

@@TeamHorneyRacing sorry but I'm not on social media mate lol

[@legendkhanproductions5263]

When is next gathering on mini wait till u see mine it will walk over all these

[@kevwilliams1]

Cold engines and then revving off to impress the camera, bad combination for longevity of the engine 😖

[@kam3587]

What wheels are on thag black mini 0:53 and grey at 3:00

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

JR racing something on the black one. No idea on the grey one I’m afraid.

[@thisisapen]

[@TeamHorneyRacing]

It's an original Hartge wide body car by Birds.
