06 Mini Cooper S ever see it before

Might as well repost this since the mods are move happy on this forum. The car was LOCATED SEMI CLOSE TO CARLISLE ... So.....

I spent some time searching the forums for this car and I didn't come up with much. I figured out that it was getting serviced in the summer in the NE and in Florida in the winter. Just thought I would see if anyone knew anything about it. Traded outside of harrisburg, pa at the CVM subaru lot. As much as I could see it has Miltek exhaust, cone filter, enkei rpm II wheels, and maybe a after market clutch. Picture sucks, but it has black wide stripes, and two tone seats. I am looking at it for a daily driver and I wanted to find out what all unseen mods were actually done.

Thanks.

Well through the dealer and the previous owner I tracked down some good information on this car. Trying to see if the PO has any of the previously installed parts. This is a picture from the PO. I put a deposit down on the car today and should be picking it up within the next week.

Thanks, after test driving a 05 JCW, this thing will definitely need pulley and tune done asap. This will be a nice change for daily driving over running my e34 on H&R /bilstein sport set up all the time... Just as stiff, but better through the twisties.

Thanks, the color is space blue metalic with a almost matte black for the wide viper style stripes. Also has the lapis blue and black leather seats. My touareg was a shadow blue metallic so this just looks like it's baby.

Why does it take so long for posts to show up? It shows up right away if I post from advanced but just quick reply it must go for moderator approval or something. Anyways for Thr short it is space blue metallic with almost a matte black on the stripes.
