picked up dec 10th 05. Car has 14000 miles.
it has been garage kept and mostly driven on weekends as you can see from the really low miles.
All work was performed by Eric at Helix, and was dyno tuned on his dyno at 211.4whp. that should be approx220-225whp on dynojet dyno.
Car is in perfect condition except the normal small chips from driving on the hwy. I have never had one issue with this car. It has never been autox or to a drag strip as I'm 42 and don't have time with having a 2 yr old. I have over 11,000 invested on top of price of the car.All stock parts included
24,000 firm

I edited your thread title since it had no information in it. I also made this a feeler since you are considering selling your MINI.

I wasn't going to say anything, but since your post is a "feeler" and your last message seems to be asking for comments....... I think your car needs to be priced well below the price of a brand new 2008 MCS with a few options ... heck your "firm" price is about the base price for a Clubman S...
Even if your car is as good or better than those... it is worth much less.... but who knows, you might get it... there are still plenty of people who believe in KBB values on these cars....

I think with the low miles, the extensive modifications, and that it's unmolested....$24k is a great price. I'd want the same for my 05 MCS with 26k miles with no mods!

It looks like a great MCS. If I didn't already have one and a 9 month 10 day old daughter...I'd buy it! Instead I got another Subaru Forester XT, newer, but like my wifes'!

Unfortunately, "want" and "get" are not always the same... it's a nice looking car... but some flexibility on the price may be required.

great car. best of luck on the sale. The price might be a bit strong but if you have time to wait for the right buyer, i believe that you will find one.

The clubman S is a completely different car and will have a different type of buyer. the cubman is for some one that wants more room but still have mini while the type of buyer that wants a car like mine doesn't care about the versatility of the clubman, they want a car that handles great, is fun to drive, already has all the best mods done without being ragged out and still has low miles.
Ive done what a lot of people wish they could afford to do to their S and am only asking 2,000 over KBB. Thats right! KBB rates my car with 14,000 miles at 22,000.00.

Yeah I have plenty of time. When I was first looking to buy a miniS I looked for a car that was this clean and still had low miles but, nothing was available

Dude, do you have any idea how awesome this car is? You can't even compare this car to a Clubman. Combine some of the best aftermarket parts that give serious & reliable power, with all the work done by one of the most reputable shops...I think $24k is a fantastic price.

I'm not sure how fear-inspiring the car is... but nonetheless, you're missing the point, it's not which car you find subjectively "better" ...it's how their market value compares. Ultimately, the choice is between the car and $24K... even though the cash hasn't been modified or tuned by a reputable shop.... potential buyers will still compare the value of the cash to the value of the car.. or whatever else the cash could buy.... even if they are all different things..
I suggest the seller delete this entire thread and repost it without asking for comments about his offer... If it is a fantastic price, it will sell... quickly. I hope it does.
