Looking for JCW R56 exhaust

[FType-K]

Anyone know of any R56 JCW exhausts going? Looked everywhere and no luck. Mini have stopped producing them too!

Hi, while I still had an R56 Cooper S the only place I found selling them was here:
https://minigenuineparts.co.uk/genuine-mini-john-c...

Not exactly cheap. But probably going to sound less droney than a lot of aftermarket ones.

Thank you. Already been in contact with them and unfortunately they came back a few weeks back to say
‘I am very sorry but I still have some bad news.

They are still on back order issues with MINI Germany, so we have now turned them off until further notice.’

But spoke to Cotswold group mini and they said:
‘The JCW exhaust system has been discontinued with no replacement unfortunately.’

So I’ve no idea!

They come up for sale at times on Facebook groups , was one not long back , complete system.

Used to be decently priced, but when everyone realised they were the best sounding, and were buying them in droves, mini hiked the price up significantly.

Christ I remember paying £200 for mine back in 2011, then selling it for £50 more just a few months later!

Great sounding exhaust, really quite loud on WOT but reasonably quiet when pooting around. No other exhaust I've heard really manages this balance quiet so well.

Thank you. Don’t happen to have a link? Can’t seem to find it!

Seller is in Leeds as I doubt postage on the exhaust is possible.
