Hey all- just picked up an ‘09 MCS yesterday- my first Mini. It had one PO, 58k miles, and appears that it was very well taken care of. The salesman at the dealership where I got it tells me the PO is an enthusiast who also has/had a 911 and Cayman. Car spent it’s entire life in Rhode Island. I’m Inn southern NH.

Very excited to have ave a hot European hatch in my life again. Had a 2010 GTI which I loved but parted with too soon due to career change/life circumstances. Ended up in a Prius (not by design), and couldn’t take it any more.

Thanks to this forum for all the info as well- helped me a lot in my decision process. Cheers!!

Haha. No mods I am aware of on it- looks stock to me. I will probably do an exhaust next spring. Also, will be replacing the tires too - came with Conti run flats.
