That car does not have Fully loaded. It's Media XL premium pjg, ala carte tenticle spoke wheels, Cloth/leatherette seats,Mini yours white dash and few other minor ala carte options. I would guess it was a 30-32k car just glancing at it.

 

I do have to make the comment that I look at the purchase in a little different light. If you are going to only average 2500 miles per year I question your judgement in buying a car with six and a half years of questionable wear.

 

I noticed that your car was originally sold the same day I bought my 2014 MCS. I just hit 20K miles today. Lots of highway miles on mine. Long stretches of highways in Texas. I've also been to a lot of MINI rallies and drives. Participated in the MINI Takes The States last year. Congrats on your car. Looks nice and clean. We all took in cars unseen when we ordered our MINIs. We all prayed to the car gods that we get a good copy. Looks like you have a nice car. As far as how good a deal it is, depends on how much you paid for it. I would consider anything below $21 K to be a good deal.

 

If it is put into Demo or service loan the dealership has to buy the car and title it. Anything over 500 miles Mini considers it a used car and one of the above hsscto happen.

 

cool, a clickbait title about the amazing deal you got and we still haven't been told the price.

 

So based on what you're saying, the warranty would start at that point as well. Good info to know.

 

Nobody's mentioned what to do with it once you get it. Take REAL good care of it and pay close attention to it's service schedule. These guys aren't your everyday grocery getter/soccer mom appliances. They need TLC and in return will pay you back with the most fun car you've ever driven.

 

To be honest I was going to wait until I got the car, took it in for a service, had a chance to drive it a bit and take some photos but you basically hit the nail on the head. With delivery by the trucking/shipping company I will be in it a little less than 21,400 (and the trucking company is charging a cool 1g to get it out to Cali, ouch!)

the organization I purchased it from is a new and used car dealer, very large and highly rated in their area (I did my homework) but for some reason, not very knowledgeable with MINI's. They did not know about XL, the paddle shifters, harmon kardon etc etc. None of these were in their add when I found it. This may have led to it sitting on their lot for almost 6 months (as you can verify in the car fax) and then again admitted to me by the salesman. I think they wanted it gone. The salesman drove it as well for me, said it looks, sounds and drives fantastic. When it shows up I will know if it was a salesman's line I was given or if he was telling the truth. My gut says he was honest with me but only time will tell.

thank you Fly'n Brick. I do care for my cars and I tend to hold on to them for quite a while if they treat me well. At the moment I have 3 and this will make 4. There is the '65 Lincoln (pictured), a 73 bronco, an 03 Z all mod'ed out and now this.....

 

What Lincoln?

 

I was gonna say- it does not have LED headlights which are part of fully loaded in the sport pkg. So it does not even have sport pkg. Weird build to be that loaded up without the LEDs.

 

before I opened up the post, I saw your quote in my inbox and thought, did that pic not show up on the site? only after I got home didI get the joke!

 

I agree it is a bit strange but I have been looking for a used one (did not want to drop 30K + on a MINI but had to have the Sunroof, Paddle Shifters and Nav. The more I searched the harder I realized it was going to be to find these three things. When I did, they were all in the 27,500-31K range. Then I found this. So while yes, it does not have some of those other goodies, exp. HUD and Back Up Cam (which would have been really nice) I can live without them. I also read a thread where someone installed a back up cam into the Nav. who knows, maybe I will attempt that someday too!

 

sounds like you did get a pretty good deal on a fine looking car.
Hope you get many fun miles out of it!
