Hey Fellas:
I purchased this car off this forum in March, 2011. As I drove it home, the odometer turned over 40,000 miles. At that time I rode my bike to work, so the mileage I put on it was minimal. Now, I work from home, and it barely gets driven at all. My loss is your gain.

I don’t want to do this. I love this car. But I don’t drive it enough and I want to add another weekender car to my stable, so this one has to go.
The guy I bought it from did all the modifications you see in the pics. I put new tires on as soon as I bought it.
Never tracked.

Quick Notes:

John Cooper Works (aero kit, motor and exhaust – all dealer installed)
Sunroof delete (adds lightness)
Tires have 15,000 miles on them (rotated at every oil change), good for 60,000
Brakes replaced 75 miles ago (new rotors, sensors, fluid, etc)
All fluids (oil, tranny, brake, coolant) replaced at same time as brakes
Passenger window motor replaced. Driver side has never failed me
Ipod (30 pin) hookup through factory radio (using aux and controllable via headunit)
New rear OEM JCW bumper (I live in the city, people are rude and/or terrible parallel parkers; it looked terrible and needed to be replaced; I also left off the sticker inserts, they yellow over time and look terrible; new buyer can decide to put them on)

Notable Mods:
I don’t have a lot of specifics because I didn’t do any of them (and I lost the original mod list the seller gave me). I did nothing to it (except add the cup holder). Well, I also performed all oil changes and maintenance.
Alta air intake
It is lowered with struts – do not know brand
M7 Front strutbar
2006 steering wheel that controls headunit
JCW body kit (Italian Job clone, hence the Marky Mark edition)
Aftermarket performance clutch (installed by previous owner)
And quite a few other things you can spot in the pics…

What comes with the car:
Snow tire set with 16inch mini wheels
Original steering wheel and head unit
Original front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts
Three different sets of carpet floor mats
Other miscellaneous parts

I am giving the Forum first crack at it because you all will know how to appreciate it. In a week or so I put it on Craigslist.

Now on to the pics...

Like I said above, I did not add those silly eye decals. It was the PO.

 

 

 

Snow tires



Plain Vanilla R53 S Bumpers and side skirts



Being the garage-mate with an E30 M3 has to mean something, right?


Thanks for looking!

 

Bippity Bump!

 

Sorry to get your hopes up with a response as I'm not in the market. I just wanted to say that is a nice lookin' MINI. GLWS!

 

Price adjusted bump!

 

Love everything about your mini! A little outside of my price range though. Let me know if there's some play in the price if you don't get what you're asking for.

 

Not in a hurry to sell but just Make an offer. The only thing I can say is "no".

 

Gorgeous car. And the MINI is pretty good looking too.
