I’m guessing just about everyone would be looking for that combo! For the last year I’ve been admiring the R53 as a fun semi-practical (??) second car for the family and biding my time on finding the right one. After looking at hundreds of Craigslist and eBay ads during that time, I figured I’d post here to see if anything pops up. I could give up the chrono package, but, as this would be my commuter in northwest Indiana in winter months, the LSD is kind of a must. other desirables would be:

• any color other than yellow or purple (the wife is pulling for pepper white)
• sunroof
• heated seats (did I mention the winter commuter?)
• cruise

I’m willing to travel a bit from either Boston or northwest Indiana (Chicago-area) to get to wherever the prospective purchase is.

I’m brand new new to Minis and the forum, but looking forward to spending more time here if this works out! Thanks for your help if you have a lead or are looking to let go of your go-kart to someone who’ll appreciate it.
