I’ve owned a R58 Cooper S for a few years and it’s been a joy to drive, but maintenance heavy since the 100K marker (currently 109K). (Replaced turbo at 100K for instance)

Looking to learn how to do small scale repairs or potentially sell. I want to understand the car, the rarity (I’ve been told it’s a rare car a lot lately), and honestly the community help with understanding what I have.

 

Original owners of a Hyper Blue R53, also thinking it's time to say goodbye to our beauty...

 

Extremely clean R53. Don't do it. You'll always regret it.
