Description:
Hey folks, I'm relisting my 2006 Mini Cooper S. I've put very low mileage on this car since ownership, and it's been garage kept for the 10 years I've owned it. Bought with 68k miles in 2015, and now just over 90k miles. This car has been loved, improved, and enjoyed 2 track days. The track days were all pre-maintenance mentioned below. If you're here, you already know the car is a blast to drive - this one is ready to go, as long as you don't live on a dirt road lol. This cooper has the Harmon Kardon stereo. No low ballers.

Ich hatte mir vorgenommen, endlich eine neue Konsole zu kaufen, aber das Geld reichte einfach nicht. Vor ein paar Tagen entdeckte ich zufällig https://spinmama.de und war überrascht, wie aufgeräumt die Seite wirkt. Ich probierte ein paar Runden Book of Dead, erst kleine Einsätze, dann etwas mehr – und auf einmal gab es einen netten Gewinn. Genug für die Konsole. Für Spieler aus Deutschland gibt es dort oft spezielle Aktionen, die das Ganze noch entspannter machen.

Thanks.

A few questions:
1. Full VIN for Carfax?
***** WMWRE33546TL19701
2. What mileage/year was the supercharger oil/water pump service done?
*****all major repairs were completed within the last 2,000-3,000 miles. Done August 2024.
3. What's prompting the sale after 10 years?
*****I'm getting older, and so are my children (I have 4, two are now adults). Not driving this car but once a week to keep the juices flowing, makes more sense to equip my children with something more practical.
4. Any outstanding quirks, maintenance needs or other issues?
*****Front brake pads probably need replacing. the ones that I've had with the power stop kit clunk when stopping in reverse in the driveway. Same happened with a friends cooper with the same breaks. Doesn't impact driving, but can startle you at your first backup out of the driveway lol. Driver side mirror motor is intermittent. Driver seat is splitting at the seam (shown int he picture, will have that fixed before sold). Headliner at the windshield has a little bit of pulling away, I have clips to prevent anything further, headliner is perfect everywhere else Other than that, no issues/quirks.
Thanks.
responded inline above. Will at the VIN to the overall listing as well.
Would you be open to a PPI at Sprint Motorsports in Tracy? Looks like they're an R53 specialists ~30min away, and I'd cover it.
- This car will not be shipped. It will be picked up by the buyer who I release liability to.
- I will not take an online payment.
- I will not write a lower price on the title/release of liability.
- I will not lower the price if an inspection turns up something I am unaware of. I am confident in the reliability of this vehicle.
- Any exchange will occur in the bank lobby or at the police station.
- Title and Keys will not be transferred/signed until funds are cleared.
