Description:

UPDATE: Price is firm.  I've received quite a bit of tire kickers, but this is priced lower than the Autotrader median and this car is ~1/3rd the typical mileage of 240k at just 81k.  I also took care of it, which means it got super good OCD-level care.  Also added new videos of the car engine running, starting, etc...

Realized today when a potential buyer was reading my service records that I got a new transmission in 2009 - I didn't have to pay for it - apparently a bolt came loose inside and tore it up...so the tranny is 5 years newer.  

Etc, have all the maintenance records from day 1…


Known issues based on dealer safety inspection (within last 1,000 miles)
- Oil pan gasket, dealer also recommended replacing the crankshaft position sensor O-ring. Dealer noted they found oil off dipstick.
- Right engine mount may be leaking
- Control arm bushing may be worn
- Minor engine coolant leak
- I don’t see a lot of liquid on my garage floor from this car, but there is usually a small amount of something…I never had to refill anything in 5 years, so I assume it is minor.

Other known issues
- One of the keys has tape on the button because the mini logo is worn and doesn’t stay attached.  The other key is fine.  I also have the emergency wallet key, so 3 keys will be included.
- Driver’s seat has a crack on the left edge in the Leatherette - added a photo
- Navigation / computer screen has a white-ish line through it - it is new, no idea what this is.
- Wheels have some scratches on them [and some brake dust]

OEM Accessories
- Absolutely no engine/suspension/exhaust or other performance or functional mods, not my thing

Pricing as of 6/17/2023:
- Edmunds private party value is $6,794, lots of adjustments for all the options, the low mileage, and the general vehicle condition.
- KBB private party value $5,964, with a range of $4,602 to $7,325.
- Autotrader shows a big range and the recommended price was $7760, so I am under the average price there and this car is well above average...Note: the avg. 2004 MINI has 240k miles....3X of mine...and the condition is not like mine...
Happy to provide the reports

Logistics
- all things equal, I will sell to a NAM member first...I want this car to go to a proper enthusiast.
