I am just seeing if there is any interest on my MINI. I currently live in CA and am trying to start a family so this car is not in the equation anymore. I love driving the car, she is well maintained and all necessary repairs are done at a MINI dealership. I have had the car respectfully modified to give some more pep but the car has only been a daily commuter and most highway miles. The car has all the necessary components that usually fail replaced by the dealership. Engine was cleaned out and inspected when gasket was replaced. The clutch holds strong and the car has a lot of nice pops from the exhaust.

Here are the details:

2005 Mini Cooper S Convertible
143,xxx miles and a few more since it is driven 6 miles to and from work everyday
Chili Red w/ Black Interior

Matching Chili Red Downtubes

OEM Chrono Kit

Updates:
DINAN High Flow Throttle Body
JCW Intake Box with flap mod and Madness Motorworks Filter
JCW Strut Tower Bar (rare)
JCW Exhaust with JCW Tips and OEM Exhaust Clamps
- both items installed and purchased at MINI dealership
Koni yellow adjustable struts
Apex springs
eibach 19mm bar
Ireland fixed camber plates

Minor Bad Things:
Rear wheel arch just flew off, I have an OEM spare on hand to install
I have a very random DSC light that comes on but does not affect performance (dealer said it is a steering wheel angle sensor)
- I have a spare steering wheel angle sensor not installed
Paint has standard small rock chips and scratches from being driven daily
Top has normal wear from usage and a small tiny patch which was present when I purchased it
The title has a buyback notice on it for the convertible top latch. I spoke to the dealership that originally bought it back and the lady who owned it before me complained about the latch noise locking. The car was repurchased from MINI and a brand new whole convertible top assembly was installed just in case. The top is fully functional and has never given me any issues.


I have attached a few pics but more can be provided.
