Got email notification on that too. Seems original owner got lots of smiles per mile but current selling owner accrued many fewer miles...

It'll be interesting to see what this relatively high mileage (for a GP) MINI brings...

The thing looks pretty beat up... missing the front side markers, its been modified and not much of the GP engine goods are still there, all that weathered clear bra material... At this point, is it still a GP, or just a well used JCW R53? I also am a little curious to see what it goes for.

Were these photos taken with a potato? If I were to ever put my car up on one of these auctions sites, I would pay extra to have a professional photographer take great photos. #0907 has some serious engine mods, and a little worn, but it is still a GP; would be a good yardstick to see what my high mileage GP would go for.

Cars & Bids isn't a selling venue I'd consider using due to seemingly less viewing exposure and comment interaction compared to BaT.

Hopefully, seller of this newly listed 2013 GP2 with just 15k miles does much better on C&B: 2013 Mini Cooper John Cooper Works GP

Cars & Bids is no competition for BAT with respect to exposure and prices obtained for sellers. Regarding the 2013 just listed, I'm not sure modding a JCW GP would be a smart move, economically speaking.
