Our new (used) Mini 2004 LY MC

We just joined the family after searching high and low for about a month. We live in San Francisco, CA and I was willing to drive a mini back from as far as TX to get a good deal, and we finally found one in southern CA.

2004 LY Mini Cooper
- auto
- premium
- roof racks
- 19K miles
- 4yr maintenance warranty
- $17K

Added tint today - with factory tint plus addon the % is as follows:
front = 35%
rear = 20%

Hello all!

thanks for the warm welcome

I have a service appt scheduled for next week to get the oil changed, work out some rattles and other small issues. I've searched the forums, so I have some background on these issues, but never hurts to try to get the dealership to try to help out
- brown/sludgy and low coolant
- shift **** (auto) chrome peeling -> service rep already said this will be replaced under warranty
- trunk not completely aligned
- battery recall
- rear window washer not functioning correctly
- ask for software upgrade, if any - car is lurching a bit coming off complete stops (perhaps it's the spark plug wires if not software, I had a miata that would lurch at low speeds - new plug wires fixed this)
- a couple rattles
