I had an expensive BMW that got horrible gas mileage, then got a new job that required me to commute 50 miles round trip every day. I bought this car as a daily driver, and it has been great - I am averaging 34mpg on mostly highway miles. Finally, I came to the realization that it was silly for me to own two cars, so I sold the 4- door car. I now need to sell the Mini and get something that is a little bigger AND gets good gas mileage. My kids (2 and 4) L-O-V-E riding in this car, but we need something that we could occasionally ram a fifth person into.

This car is a blast to drive, and looks good to boot. No accidents, no mechanical problems, and clean carfax. I bought it brand new from Mini of Sterling and am the first and only owner.

If you need a fun car with good gas mileage, then this car is for you. VIN is in the photos below, as is a shot of the original sticker listing all original factory options (heated seats, xenon headlights, Bluetooth, iPod, bonnet stripes, and a few other minor aesthetic options). The only thing I added after purchasing the car is window tint.

Asking $21500 OBO. Kelly Blue Book lists the trade-in value for this car in excellent condition at $21,793.

Car was bought in June 2012, so original factory warranty runs from that date.

Please PM or email with interest.

Please note, this is still my daily driver. As such, the mileage will increase about 250-300 miles per week.

 

if i were you, i'd keep the MINI, you can fit a 5th person in the car with two kids. At times, i have hauled 5 people (including myself as the driver) in the MINI, 2 in the front, 3 in the back. I'm 6', my passengers are mostly shorter than me.

It's not comfortable for 3 to sit tightly in the back seat, but when that does happen, it's mostly pick-up and drop-off transport, no long distance driving.

 

Um, you're not fitting another person in the back seat with two car seats... And he's looking at 4 more years of car seats /boosters for one kid and 6 for the other... Trust me... I've got a 3 and 1 year old... They're owning the back seat for the next 7ish years haha...
