Fs: 03 Brg/w Mc

Selling... 2003 British Racing Green/White MINI Cooper because my hubby and I have finally decided to have kids, and I just don't want to deal with a two-door car in this AZ heat. 45k miles, and still under warranty. Asking $18,950k or best offer. Excellent Condition, zaino is my friend. :smile: Just had the second oil service done, so no maintenance is needed for another 14k miles. Car comes with premium package (cruise control, sunroof, onboard trip computer), black leatherette with silver panelling, also have the MINI owner's kit I received from MINI when I bought the little guy. I have ads with cars.com and autotrader.com in case I missed something or you want to see pictures. Just do a search for the above MINI in the Phoenix area, or you can email me at higurney@***.net.

16.9K Is base price + 550 destination + 1250 for premium pkg (that is what it cost in 03, i know cuz i have an 03) + leatherette is std no charge option = 18.7k

You paid 18.7k BRAND NEW THREE YEARS AGO!

Unless you didnt list a bunch of options, you are asking $200 more than you paid for it after 45k miles......you are way over priced

My service indicate oil change almost every 11k. How come 45k only have 2 oil changed? must be abused.

1st service is at 10k miles
2nd service is at 25k miles
3rd service is at 40k miles

I recently sold my 2003 MC with identical options (except mine was chili red) plus sport seats, fog lights, Borla exhaust, and other minor extras for $16250. Oh, and mine had 18,000 fewer miles.

I don't usually jump in to crap all over people's for sale ads, but your asking price is absurd. Maybe start around $16,000 if you're not in a hurry to sell and you're feeling lucky.

Two oil changes in 45K miles? WTF I never go more than 5K miles between oil changes.

1st oil change at 2K
2nd oil change at 5K
then intervals at 10K, 15K, ect.

There is no way in hell I'd buy a car knowing the oil had only been changed twice in 45K miles. I don't care what the selling price was.

I don't mean to be rude...I love everybody's MINIS but that's one step-child I couldn't claim.

MINI service record:

Oil Service (1) approx 10K miles
INSPECTION 1 approx 25k miles
Oil Service (2) approx 40k miles

I'll be due for INSPECTION 2 in 14k miles.

If anyone is seriously interested in the car, please contact me.

They do change the oil at the 25,000 mile service (as opposed to leaving it in there for 30,000 miles!).
