UK-based tuning specialist Mulgari Automotive
announced their new bespoke vehicle ownership programme called Signature
Vehicles which aims to offer new models tailored and built to the customer’s
personal specification.
The first model to come out of their new program is
the Mulgari F56 SV which is available to all current-generation Mini Hatchback
models and can be ordered directly from Mulgari.
This Mini Cooper S features numerous upgrades, inside and out. The exterior now features a more
aggressive look, thanks to replacement of the chromework with one of the six
available color accents to the mirrors, belt line, brake calipers, and front
grille. A set of 18-inch lightweight alloy wheels together with a lower front
splitter and custom exhaust tips complete the exterior changes.
The turbocharged 2.0-litre engine is now making
280 hp and 290 lb-ft of peak torque, thanks to Mulgari’s own engine management
program, a new exhaust and additional engine cooling.
The chassis has been enhanced with a new suspension
setup that drops this Mini 30 mm closer to the ground and enabling it to “take
full advantage of the additional performance without removing any of the
original model’s character”.
Mulgari also says that each of their Signature
Vehicles series undergo a complete interior refit, with the seats, steering
wheel and door cards professionally re-trimmed in the customer’s preferred
choice of material and color.
