2006 Mini Cooper S

6-speed manual with factory limited-slip differential (a rare option)
One owner
73,000 miles
No accidents
Fanatically maintained

I bought this car in April 2006. It has been loads of fun, but it’s been 10 years. I’m ready for a new toy. This car has been very well maintained. The common failure points and wear items have been addressed, including:

• New Bilstein shocks (the expensive yellow ones) installed 2000 miles ago with new mounts.
• New control arm bushings (PowerFlex urethane), front sway bar bushings, inner and outer ball joints, and tie rod ends
• New power steering reservoir hoses (original ones leak after 10 years)
• Crankshaft pulley replaced with one-piece fluid filled pulley (the factory ones break in two)
• Belt, belt tensioner and damper replaced
• Crank position sensor o-ring replaced (common cause of oil leaks)
• Thermostat housing and gasket replaced
• New upper motor mount
• Redline fluid in the gearbox

I just performed routine maintenance to ensure that new owner is ready to hit the road

• Oil change
• New spark plugs
• New front brake rotors

This car has an Alta 15% supercharger pulley for more boost and extra power. (I install cooler plugs, NGK BKR-7s to reduce the risk of pre-detonation.)

The paint is in good shape overall. There are some chips on the front of the hood. There’s a scratch on the tailgate that I have touched up.

The tires are mid-life. The car passed state inspection in May, but will likely need tires before next year. The current tires are NOT run-flat.

The factory owner’s manual is in the glovebox. I have the original window sticker. I have a Haynes service manual. All of this is included.

The options on the car are:

• Red interior accents (only available on red and blue cars)
• Auto-climate control
• Limited-slip differential
