• A set of colder Spark Plugs
EBC Red Stuff front brake pads(about a year old).
New rear brake pads(one month ago).
Slotted rotors.
New catalytic converter installed one year ago.
I purchased new original R90 Anthracite Cross Spoke Wheels from a MINI dealer about 4 years ago at a cost of $1500.
Tires are Bridgestone Potenza S04 Pole Position Max Performance Summer tires.
The MINI has a Sprint Booster Power Converter installed.
This is in my opinion one of the best looking MINI Coopers ever made. The car is exceptionally clean and a lot of fun to drive. The MINI Mania Stage 2 kit makes all the difference in the world.
97K miles but looks almost new.
I have a lot of documentation including all manuals and the original invoice.

The MC40 has a 6 speed manual transmission.

The inspection and emissions were just done and are good until May 2020.

MINI's original press release for the MC40 edition:
Forty years ago this year, the Beatles performed on the Ed Sullivan show marking the start of the British invasion, and, across the pond, another British icon was making it’s mark in racing history.
It was January 1964 when Mini driver Patrick Hopkirk, a young Northern Irishman from Belfast, and his navigator, Henry Liddon, set out on the Monte Carlo Rally from the Russian city of Minsk. They were up against the likes of the V8-powered Ford Falcons, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SE, a Volvo 544, as well as a number of fine-handling Citroens.

And when the dust settled at the finish line, a small red David with a white roof proudly showed its tailpipe to all those high-powered Goliaths, clinching overall victory in the Monte Carlo Rally. And in this “big bang”, the tiny little car immediately became a legend: The “giant killer” Mini Cooper S.
Driving the Mini Cooper S in the Monte Carlo Rally back in 1964, Patrick “Paddy” Hopkirk re-wrote the rules and so changed motorsport history.
The Mini recipe for success has remained basically unchanged since 1959: sufficient space for four people, not one gram of extra fat, plenty of muscle from the engine, lots of character and a truly sporting attitude – no car has remained as faithful to its principles over a long period of 40 years as the MINI.

Forty years later, it is precisely this character which gives the MINI Cooper S its enormous popularity. While retaining the ingenious “wheels at four corners” concept, the MINI Cooper S comes with the most modern automotive technology within its engine bay and, indeed, throughout the entire body of the car, ensuring maximum driving pleasure and optimum occupant safety. Engine power of 163 hp and maximum torque of 155 lb-ft give this exclusive driving machine a top speed of 135 mph, with acceleration from 0-60 in 6.9 seconds.
And to fully commemorate Paddy’s great victory, MINI USA is taking the MINI Cooper S and offering 1,000 Monte Carlo Rally Commemorative Editions, also known as the MC40.
The MC40 evokes the original MINI Cooper S that Paddy drove wearing the famous 33EJB and unmistakable number 37. In addition to the already winning platform, all 1,000 cars will be identically built in Chili Red with the signature white roof , red leather-trimmed sports seats (like the original), a John Cooper Works REAL Carbon Fiber Dash, Auxiliary Driving Lights, Chrome Grill, Mirrors, and Boot Trim, Special 17? wheels fitted with all season runflats, Auxiliary Gauges, and a matte chrome gear **** with a special inlay.
