I’m one of the ones who doesn’t mind and actually like the painted wheel arches, especially on the aero, and it makes it easier to wax the car, but they gotta have the right color rims..black rims have a way of making the wheels disappear, unless there’s some silver, either wheel lip or even the screws on a two piece. On that car, it looks like a silver brick with two holes where the wheels go.
Or paint the roof BRG, that combo makes my eyes hurt. The tan, the white, the chrome, the stripses, too much going on. But how do you need a clutch at 13k miles, kinda odd.

I don't mind the quirkiness of the color combo, but yea that early clutch replacement is a definite hmmmm. Also, for 30K miles that engine bay looks more like 130K. I know there is salt air corrosion in Florida, but I would have expected a bit cleaner under-bonnet view. Also are the headlight washer covers both missing? Otherwise, I'm like... what Checkmate in Phoenix? LOL
04 silver JCW 93k miles $8900 It’s a limited edition “Jackson Cooper Works” that is Johns cousins little brother from a previous marriage lol. Worst graphics ever.

This two-owner BRG/silver 2006 Factory JCW with 29,407 miles sold already. Asking price was $8,000. The selling owner was a service advisor at MINI and the clutch was replaced under warranty at 13K by the same MINI dealer because "the original owner just wanted to replace it." VIN is WMWRE33556TL22820 in case we want to track this in the future.
Note for these ads: if you have the VIN it's a great idea to post it. The ad links eventually go dead or get deleted, and posting the VIN will preserve any discussion history if the car comes up for sale later.
Funny no pic or real description on the CarGurus link. But if you click on the dealer site they do have this Black 05 S with aero kit 73k miles for $6500
Another detour from Good Deals on Cars to present a listing for a set of R53 JCW checkered Floormats in good condition. In 3 years of looking this is the second set I’ve seen for sale.
A rather odd ad in that current up-to-date pictures are lacking especially considering the asking price.
Love this pic though,
the smile says it all!
Quite an impressive mod list no doubt.

Barely street legal and a ton of fun to drive.
