Anyone know this R52 Sidewalk?


I bought this 2007 Sidewalk Mini off of an eBay auction. It was an Orlando Florida dealer.
Does anyone recognize it?
It's in good condition overall. No significant issues.

My 2013 R56 now has a brother.

Jeff

That's great. Looks like my Mini family is expanding... But don't hit me up for child support.

Thanks! 105K when I picked her up in Winter Springs FL. Now I've got over 107k after a short cruise back to Colorado.

You've got some great mods on your R52. Mine is totally stock.

Looks great, quite the find. Congrats! Any performance mods made? BTW, lived in Colorado about 10 years, including 5 in the Springs!

No mods. I'm debating whether to leave it stock or mod it.
That's cool that you lived in the Springs. What part of town?

Only real performance I did on mine was a 15% pulley with requisite plugs and belt. Everything else was convenience oriented

That's a nice find and very low miles, don't recognize it with the WIPAC lights.

Do you have the VIN, Full VIN ?

Originally rented a house on Boulder, then another out on the east side near Peterson Field, then bought a house south of town in Cheyenne Meadows area.

I lived in Cheyenne Meadows back in 1993-1996. I liked that area. Now I live north of Pete.

Nice! You're lucky to get it with so few miles. Enjoy!
