Long story short in 2 years we've had over 48 warranty repairs.... Ive been lied to, called a liar and laughed at. I'm done 04 mini for sale.

So... the wife is sad. It was her fav. little car. So to make her happy I figure we could get a Civic Si or an S2000, and have money for a original mini on the side perhaps?

What's a good price for one in decent shape? I'm also interested in doing some custom motor work if the rest of the drive-train could handle some more hp. I'm assuming the 998cc motor is pretty weak, but is it turbo friendly cause i have an extra little turbo laying around, I did my own turbo setup on my s2000 and feel fairly confident. I'd like to throw 5psi at it and pick up 30-40hp+.

More importantly I just want one, I can worry about that other stuff later, so whats the best place to come up one one, and whats the cost?

Thx much everyone!!!!

If you're going to put a turbo on it I'd recommend getting a 1275cc or higher engine. MiniMania.com is a good place to look for a classic. That's where I found mine at.

 

Don't buy one off ebay unseen, unless you like to do body work..

 

PM me and let me know what your looking for, how much work your willing or wanting to do, and a price range and maybe i can help you get into something
