2004 AC Schnitzer Mini

2004 AC Schnitzer Mini "Extraordinary", "cheeky", "pleasant", "reliable" and "incredible" are only some of the adjectives used to describe the most emotional small automobile of new years.

With the creation of the MINI Convertible the range is now entire, and for AC Schnitzer the logical result became to offer for all MINI models - both Convertible or tough top - a special accessories variety which leaves not anything to be desired.

The preferred engine of the MINI Cooper S which thanks to compressor technology already offers a considerable 125 kW / one hundred seventy HP, has been given a good sized increase by using the AC Schnitzer engineers who have optimized the compressor ratios and on the identical time adapted the Control Unit Program. After the AC Schnitzer remedy, the 1.6 l strength plant grants a stately 142 kW / 193 HP at 7000 rpm. In this guise, the MINI Cooper S with the aid of AC Schnitzer covers the zero - one hundred km/h dash in only 7.Zero seconds, and has a pinnacle pace of 235 km/h. 

To enhance response, the performance upgrade is obtainable at the side of the AC Schnitzer sports activities rear silencer made completely of stainless steel with chromed racing tailpipe trim and the corresponding engine highlights in stainless steel.

For the MINI One D too, we've got advanced a diesel overall performance upgrade which can provide sixty six kW / 90 HP and takes the most torque to 220 Nm at 2000 rpm.

Naturally conversion to the AC Schnitzer rear silencer is recommended even without the engine enhancements. But the consumer faces a tough choice. For both the MINI One and the MINI Cooper there are two editions to be had: a dual exhaust system with  oval tailpipes in right/left aggregate or the unmarried oval tailpipe design. 

The 0.33 variant is reserved for the MINI Cooper S: a sports tailpipe in centre positioning, within the layout of the AC Schnitzer Racing tailpipe trim.

Whatever variation he chooses, the purchaser is assured to revel in the throaty sound and attractive integration of the exhaust into the rear of the MINI.

Last however no longer least, for cultured enhancement of all MINI models (besides the Cooper S) the chromed tailpipe trim with oval quit is available.

The AC Schnitzer rear skirt now not only integrates the silencer but on the same time gives the MINIs (except the MINI One D) a far extra effective look. 

Also available for the the front is a complete skirt, which thanks to the generously dimensioned the front grille with chrome frame gives the MINIs a vivid new facial expression. But the aerodynamic conversion is not just an aesthetic development. Made from high first-class PU-Rim, it offers stepped forward downforce and is easy for paint and fit. 

The outside program is completed by means of the fashion designer stripes and the AC Schnitzer logo "Technology & Design", available in white or black or, for the Cooper S, with a purple "S".

An absolute eyecatcher - for each the outside and the indoors observer - is the AC Schnitzer fold and slide roof, which offers a authentic alternative to the Convertible. With an opening of 710 x 810 mm, it presents a true fresh air enjoy regardless of the "tough top" design.

The driving dynamics of all MINI fashions are similarly improved via suspension additives which decrease the vehicle through around 30 mm along side the AC Schnitzer Type I alloy wheels in 7.5J x 17" with tyres 215/40 R 17.

For all MINI models, a height-adjustable racing suspension is to be had collectively with suspension spring kits for natural reducing. The suspension idea is completed for the Cooper S variants via the AC Schnitzer aluminium strut brace for the front which in addition stabilizes the the front cease on tight corners or surprising swerve manoeuvres.

So it is no wonder that the subjective riding impressions are harking back to a Go-Kart, in particular on twisty roads or at excessive speeds. For tyres, we advise excessive performance tyres by means of Continental and Michelin.

The famous dot on the "i" comes from the interior components along with e.G. The aluminium pedal units with matching foot relaxation cover, the aluminium equipment knob and the aluminium handbrake manage. Last but now not least, unique floor mats are to be had with a 2-colour embroidered AC Schnitzer "Technology & Design" brand.

Finally, AC Schnitzer gives tailor-made answers in the fields of site visitors telematics and Car Infotainment which may be included optimally.

Naturally all additives are TUV-tested and to be had out of your BMW dealer.
