2003 MCS ... The Minitor Returns! (KY)

I am selling my 2003 MCS. This Mini was previously known as the Minitor and was featured in MC2 issue No. 4. I have owned her since Nov. 2007 and have done the necessary work to keep her running in excellent condition. This car has the Premium, Sport and Weather packages w/NAV. The car has currently 77,077 miles. Here is an extensive list of what she offers:

Performance Mods
1. Promini intake
2. Promini 17 % pulley
3. Promini short shifter
4. Promini strut tower bar
5. Supersprint cat-back exhaust
6. OBX headers
7. MTH tuner file ECU upgrade
8. Toyo Proxes (brand new in December 2007)
9. ASA AR2 17-inch machined w/anthracite accent (brand new Dec. 2007)
10. Orciari full body kit
11. H & R lowering springs
12. JCW shocks
13. Alta 22 mm rear sway bar
14. Hamann pedals
15. Hella fog lights
16. Skid plate

Comfort and Dress Up Mods
1. Carbon fiber bonnet scoop
2. 35% tint on windows and sunroof
3. Clear taillights
4. Powder coated black gas cap
5. Chrome mirror caps, cowl vent bezels, washer covers, trunk handle, and license plate frames
6. Custom blue suede shift boot and handbrake cover
7. Aluminum handbrake handle
8. Chrome dash and interior trim
9. Blue LED interior lights
10. Pyle DVD Player through NAV
11. Alpine Alarm
12. Auxiliary audio input for iPod
13. Diamond plate floor mats
14. Leather door pull wraps
15. Leather wrapped downtubes
16. Glove box organizer

Asking $ 16,500. I'm located in Lexington, KY. The reason for selling is to buy a van for my fitness business and I do not want or need a total of 3 vehicles. The car is an absolute attention grabber. If you are interested in this 2003 SEMA display vehicle, just let me know! email: urgreat@insightbb.com or call (859)338-9350 ask for Bob

Sorry for the delay! The car drives very smooth considering the lowered suspension. I do pay extra attention to potholes and larger speed bumps. I wouldn't have bought the car had it been a bone jarring ride. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised on how well it handles as a daily driver. Thanks for the interests!

Hi Bob...finallly got online. Sorry I didn't call last night, but I'm still shmoozing the wife about your car. She's not into the silver or the back bumper though.

Any interest here? I certainly don't want this Mini to go to a dealer for trade. My time frame is to try and sell her (at the latest) by the end of July. I would really like an MCS enthusiast to treat her the right way!

Hi Bob, just wanted to wish you luck on the sale. My wife wasn't too fond of the back bumper, and was really set on either Electric Blue or Dark Silver. I think we've found her a car now, which is a good thing. No more 16 mpg!
