FS: 2005 Mini Cooper S

Well, the time has come, and I need to upgrade to something a little bigger. I've had my Mini almost two years and it's been great every single day I've driven it.

It's a BRG/white roof with 40,000k, no accidents and in excellent shape. Purchased used from Mini Yaletown at 17,000km in November 07. It's a 6-speed with the factory limited-slip differential.

-Aftermarket extras include:
-Alta 15% pulley
-K&N Typhoon intake
-Custom built Alta-style exhaust
-Racing Dynamics aluminum front strut brace
-Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R tires since May 08 (super sticky, probably 60-70% tread left. These tires changed the whole experience of driving the Mini, they come from the factory already shaved and ready to tear up the track or your favourite twisty turnys. They are also excellent in water. I've put about 15,000km on them so far - never driven them in the winter)
-OEM Rubber floor mats in addition to the carpet ones.
-Boost gauge plumbing installed for dyno purposes
-Upgraded front speakers (Focal 6.5" with tweets), upgraded rear speakers (Alpine 6x9 2-way)
-Alpine head unit CDA-9885 w/iPod full control interface
-Alpine mono sub amplifier
-Alpine 4 channel speaker amplifier
-Good quality wiring (monster speaker wiring, Audison power wiring and distribution). The amps are bolted to a metal plate and the plate can be "locked" in place using the luggage tie-downs, and there is a custom made panel that fits over the amps.
-Custom made subwoofer box with JL 10" subwoofer, perfect for any kind of music. Takes up approx. 1/3 of the trunk but is removable in 5 seconds.
-HID matched high beams, anti-eggyolk front turn signal bulbs and spares
-Security tint on all rear windows

-ZERO exterior or interior modifications. The only thing that looks different about this car compared to a stock one is the exhaust tip!

Factory warranty expired in March 2009, I never had any issues other than little things here and there while I had the car (e.g. the doors would stick in the cold - not anymore, and the windshield wipers would move weirdly sometimes - that was also fixed). I've kept very good care of the car, and to speak of damage, there are only two or three rock chips, and one small hardly noticeable door ding. There is curb rashing on one wheel, and a couple of chips and nicks on the other. The previous owner didn't drive it very much, but managed to scrape up a rim...

I'm asking $21,900 and I'm somewhat firm on the price considering the extras. I will be trading it in to a dealership if I don't get what I'm asking and would rather an enthusiast have it, if I trade it in I'll strip off most of the extras.
