  • Price
    $0 - $6,000
  • Location Eagle Mountain, UT, 84005, USA
  • Condition Used
Description:

Looking to find a R53 in British Racing Green. I'm hoping to find a clean example that I can maintain for years to come. Let me know if you are looking to sell or if you spot one that matches what I'm looking for!

Options:
Need to have: 2005-2006, BRG, Cooper S, 6 speed manual, Xenon headlights, cold weather package, auto climate, good condition paint, black interior, LSD

Like to have: JCW performance package, less than 115k miles, anthracite headliner, sunroof

Can't have: Chrono gauges

I would love to stay under $6000, but am willing to budge a bit for the right car. 
Located in Utah. Would prefer to find something within 500 miles, but am willing to travel/transport. 

EDIT: Adjusted what I'm looking for.

A 500 mile preference is definitely gonna make that “like to have” list more unlikely without luck or a long wait. but it happens. You could be the guy lol. You got a few of your requirements here, but missing some must haves, and not local by any means.

Yeah, I'm willing to be picky with this one though. I got the silver JCW and how I would like a BRG to pair with it. I would love to find one that I can fly out and drive back with - make a road trip out of it, but we'll see.

I actually saw that last night as I was going through AutoTempest! The rust under the taillight on picture 17 makes me wonder how bad the undercarriage is on it.. But it does have the anthracite headliner, color matched roof, and seems solid otherwise.

Worth inquiring about maybe, tail light rust is obviously super common, mostly because water gets trapped back there between the panel seams, doesn’t necessarily mean the underside is the same, but it could be.
