This is a great opportunity to own a well cared for car currently owned by a bonafide petrol head & 6 year NAM member.

Happy to sell but to a god home. I adore this car, have kept it in top shape for 7 years, have put my heart & soul & $25,000 of repairs into it.

I would have taken this MINI in a heartbeat. too bad I'm in the East Coast.
Motor On.

 

People just don't get it. I've worked 6 years in automotive parts, have spent over 30k in that time replacing parts on the car. No rust, fresh paint, no rattles, minimal aftermarket mods, fresh engine & clutch & tires & plugs & oil & pads & brakes & MagnaFlow cat-back, and a seller who provides 6 years of detailed work and offers to stand by you for months to come.

First person to see it bought it immediately, no haggle. He said, "When I first saw it, my heart almost stopped."

It sold for a 10k loss, but needed to go.

Cats just don't get it.

 

It sounds like it went to someone who will care for it for years to come. Nice happy ending IMO.
