  • Location Charlotte, NC, 28278, USA
  • Condition Used
Description:

I’m having trouble finding a R53 JCW so I figured I might as well see if I could find a 2013 JCW or a 2012/2013 S with JCW exterior package. Must be a N18. Obviously Recaro seats would be a huge bonus but I found a set for sale so that’s no longer a requirement. Also must be manual and have low miles.

There's a clean-looking R53 JCW on Bring-a-trailer right now, FWIW.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...ooper-s-jcw-6/

There's also a 2014 JCW Clubman with Recaros in Baltimore.

Searching for it doesn't work that well because they spelled it "Racaros" in the ad haha.

Thanks. I’m well aware of the JCW on BaT. It’s definitely a nice car but it’s going to bring a premium on BaT. There are too many unknowns and “issues” with the car for me to get into a bidding war. The 2014 Clubman is really nice, I’m just not a huge fan of the clubman and don’t need the extra space. I stopped searching for Recaro since so many people spell it incorrectly lol.

The first one 🤦‍♂️. That poor car lol.

I contacted the dealer a week ago on the second one and it’s sold. It’s removed from their website.

There’s a red JCW on Tred, but the owner knows nothing about the history and all of the modifications were done by the previous owner. Plus most of the modifications aren’t to my liking/standards so I would have to undo them 🙄

Did you add Recaro seats at some point because the pictures in your album show standard seats?

I did not- it came with them. I have had many Mini Coopers and you are looking at a prior one. The one I have now is my thumbnail

Are you sure you don't want a Clubman? The JCW is pretty sweet, and this one looks to still be available:

Thanks but I definitely don’t want a clubman. Plus that car spent it’s whole life in Canada so I’m sure it’s rusty and it’s had 5 owners lol.

Sorry, I didn't look at the Carfax. I didn't realize it was a Canadian vehicle... Would that make it difficult to register in the US, too?

I’m sure the dealer already did the paperwork for US registration, it’s not that hard. The speedometer will be in KPH instead of MPH so that would have to be changed unless you could deal with the annoyance.

Nobody has a JCW or S with a N18 and Recaros that they would consider selling?

Bump. New description of what I am looking for since I found a set of Recaro seats. It won’t let me change the title though.

N14 Problems are over rated, just as many nuances with the N18. Glad you got your seats
