Mint, Like New, Low Mile, Fully Optioned R53 JCW

Year: 2006
Make: MINI
Model: Coupe
Price: $13500
Mileage: 13780
Color: Silver
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (Region): SouthEast

I have a totally mint, well equipped 2006 Mini Cooper JCW.

I am the 3rd owner, last owner was also a car nut and so was the one before. At 29, I am the youngest person to own this by at least 30 years.

Garage kept, never seen an automatic car wash. Nor has it ever had a mod installed. The wheels are factory and they are perfect.

This car new was over $40,000.

I paid $17000 for the car a couple months ago.

It is in perfect condition other than the following issues-
-Latch on armrest does not latch
-Small dent on driver side rear quarter panel and door
-Small scuff on passenger fender plastic trim

Car has a warranty until 2026 or 100,000 miles
http://gosunpath.com/elements/pdf/SAPlatinum.pdf

This car has no issues and smells new, leather is perfect. It has only been serviced at Mini and I have all the paperwork, books, and option books. Like the day it was sold. I also have the factory car cover.

I bought it on impulse a few months ago to daily drive my 80 mile round trip commute. After driving it and reading up on it, I cannot put the miles on a car like this. It is probably the best example of a Mini Cooper you will find. BTW I drive the car to work on Sundays NOT daily, I still have a leased Camry until Jan 1.

Please feel free to ask me any questions, I will answer them honestly. I buy a lot of cars and am very good to work with. I would keep it but I am buying a GS350 to rack up miles on and I can't have $50,000 worth of cars in my driveway.

I am located in Ft. Myers Florida, I don't mind driving distances to meet or picking anyone from an airport.

This is a beautiful car, and in my opinion is the best value in this price range. Especially with the warranty.

Had a few low offers but I can't sell it much lower, I'd rather keep it. I'll post the pics of the minor, minor dents people always ask to see. You can't really see them.

I bought my '05 R52S with 3,648 original miles in 2015. The MOST I could get in agreed value insurance was $12,000.00 ,which was fine...as I paid a lot less for the car.

I am sure my seats look nothing like yours with 80k miles.

Updated Pictures!

I lowered the price to $15,000. I can't do lower than that, whoever gets this car will have a pristine example of a Mini.

I just put money down on a 2013 GS

How much does it cost to get the window tint removed? I think that dark of a tint is illegal in my state?

It is 15% all the way around and I did a 50% on the windshield.

I think 175-200 for everything at a proper tint shop. I just love the way it looked with the black roof.

Maybe having a JCW convertible would be better in Florida? Any interest in a trade? I'm just not a convertible guy and the day I sold my R53 for an R52 still ranks as one of the worst for me. But then again i live in Cincinnati, not Florida.

No, I sold it for 12,500 on cargurus. He got a brilliant car for the money. He's planning on storing it as well.
