I am the 2nd owner of the low milage mini. It sat in the owners garage for warm weekend drives. It had 34*** miles when I got it. I put new BF Goodrich tires on it, changed the oil with royal purple, changed the plugs and put it on a lift for inspection. No rust anywhere, no dents, etc. Perfect one owner old lady's car.

I immediately put on an M7 strut tower brace to prevent mushrooming of the tops. The next upgrades were a 17% Alta pulley and M7 intake box. Also an Alta intercooler air diverter.

It now has satisfying power at all RPM levels, and sounds great. Also quiet on highway driving, that's very important to me.

It came with extra factory gauges below the stereo. Oil temp, voltage and I installed a boost gauge on the column.

Maintenance wise, I did an oil change 5000 miles ago, the plugs at 80000 miles (Brisk dor14lgs-T) it's still on the original brakes with well over 50% left, front and rear. New goodyear tires at 80000 miles

With the low mileage, excellent condition and being a Grey checkmate edition I'm looking for $8,000 (obo of course).

There are a few minor flaws, Windsheild stars, and the rear wiper washer is clogged, motor needs replacment. A few rims have some curb rash.

I believe this is the best example you will find anywhere, until you start looking at JCW minis.

All buttons are perfect and unworn, it's a near perfect little mini.

Text me, 802-461-8620, come to me or I'll drive it to you!

 

I have had a few emails, and then they disappear... is it no one wants a grey checkmate with 68,000 miles???

 

I think a few photo's would really help you sell this car!!

 

I would love to, I try and upload them and it gives me errors each time. Maybe ill try photobucket, direct upload from dropbox isnt working.

ill try this weekend.

 

Try uploading one picture at a time. I have tried to upload multiple at once, and always get kicked out.

Also, try to upload individual pics using the picture icon (mountan) in the Menu bar.

 

Photobucket and use the embed code.

 

updates with pics!

 

66k, 68k, or 86k?? You have all 3 mileages mentions at different points of this listing!!

 

I can't fix the title. It's 85000 currently. The others are OLDER posts, that was the milage at the time. It is my daily driver, the milage goes up every day. Hence the milage changes.

 

Just cleaned the UNI filter and rotated the tires...

:-)

 

Now my commute is 4 miles a day, so yay!

 

Just put winter wheels on and an oil change at 90000 miles.

 

You've been trying to sell for a year? Whats the updated price with the extra miles?

 

Oh, duh...

6500

😀

 

I just put some fresh pads and rotors on the rear a few minutes ago!

 

Replaced rear wiper motor and hatch struts.

Now the only thing wrong with the car is a windshield star.

6500, come and get it!

 

Beautiful car, royal grey is an awesome color! Does this have the heated seats in it?

 

Full cold weather pkg, seats, mirrors and washer nozzles

😀

 

Nice I sent you an email but of course I'm locked out of mine right now. Forgot my password but I'm very interested in your car. I'll have to send you a message on here so we can discuss it.

 

Wrote you back!

 

Stock exhaust? Can't tell from the pic.

 

Yup!

 

I am interested but won't be in the market until probably spring. Any oil or coolant leaks? If not it looks like a pretty good deal. Any bites so far? It seems like it would have sold in the last year.

 

No leaks, no issues, other than the battery dying in the cold this morning.

All issues fixed, but the stars in the windshield. Needs nothing but a cleaning!

 

Sold!!!
