Up for sale

My car, WC50 401 is up for sale. Some preface, I do not have to get rid of this car. It’s fun to drive and has been going with no significant issue since the new motor was put in. I’m just interested in what I can get for it in order to try and get into a little more practical car. Let’s just see what happens. 2010 MINI Cooper JCW WC50 edition

Best wishes for a successful sale. The stripes would be an asset and inexpensive to buy and install. Scuttle numbers may be difficult. I checked with MINI USA and they do not keep the original pattern or dies for these. With a new engine it will provide many care free miles to the new owner. A lot of fun too. Keep us posted please.

Checking in

Figured I’d check back in. My car, #401 has sold! If what the shipping company said was true, my car will be leaving Arizona in a few hours on its way to the new owner in Texas. He actually saw my post in this forum so I must thank you guys for that. MINI life has been fun and it’s brought me many new friends and a job that I absolutely adore. I’m sure once he has the car in hand he will be posting in this forum and I’m glad I passed the car onto a WC50 enthusiast.
In case you were wondering, I bought a 2017 VW Golf Alltrack to replace 401. Thank you guys for everything. (:

Nice! Maybe the start of WC50 recognition and its collectibility? Not sure of the value of Sterling Moss signature on the COA and next John Cooper? Paddy Hopkirk maybe. Or John Cooper himself...... This was originally sold to Danbury, Connecticut? All interesting to me. Let's see what it sells for!

I don't quite understand the description, as I don't see any picture of Sir Stirling Moss... that's the photo of Mike Cooper! Still, curious what it sells for....

This car has had five owners in it's time. That's a lot. The mileage remains responsible though.

I was the previous owner. Sold it to the current owner in November. Looks like he put about 5k in miles on it since then.
The Moss signature is on the COA and the dash. There are actually 2 WC50s with this signature. We met Him at a historic festival at Lime Rock Park and he signed 2 WC50s and a GPII.
Jackmac was the original owner in PA. Then sold to a guy in texas. Followed by a guy in NC where I bought it and had it for the last 4 years. I put about 28k miles on it during that time.

Car looks to be in good shape even with multiple owners and travels to where ever the owners were. I hope the 23k is paid. It would be good for the rest of the owners. It could start the collectibility of them.

I would love to know how many WC50's are remaining in the US. Two have been totaled and one has been sold out if country that I know of. Is there any other information that can be shared?

Number 61 was vandalized and torched in the UK 2 days ago. Sad to see another WC50 gone and in such a manner.

We tried getting on the WC50 Facebook Group, but our membership remains pending. Our #424 is still for sale if anyone knows someone looking for a WC50. I believe we are priced fairly, but are open to offers on the car! Cheers! https://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-Mini-C...-/124086605726
