$6600
Located in Columbus, Georgia area (90 miles southwest of Atlanta).

I bought this 3 owner 05' MCS slick-top (non-sunroof) last September 2018 for my father to join in the fun since both my brother (06') and I (03' purchased new) have R53's. Dad never got to drive the car due to a lower back problem, so I am now putting it up for sale to clear the garage. This is a well optioned 05' facelift car, vin# TL12047 in the desirable Hyper Blue with Lapis/black leather interior, it has sport, cold, convenience and chrono packs, auto temp control, chrome interior. Car is in great condition, no rust around tail lights, minimal seat wear and the exterior only has a few blemishes. The headliner is starting to droop down at passenger windshield area.

Previous owner performed maintenance and upgrades:
  • ATI crank pulley.
  • WMW 15% s/c pulley.
  • new Luk clutch due to bad throwout bearing.
  • supercharger service and water pump.
  • May 2018 new Bridgestone runflat tires.
  • June 2018 new rotors and Textar pads all around.
  • WMW installed Powerflex lea's, TSW springs with Koni orange struts/shocks.
  • Milltek cat back exhaust.
In preparation for my Dad driving the car I have updated all fluids and ensured car was up to spec mechanically.
  • 10/3/18 at 79,105 miles oil & filter change - Castrol 5w-30 synthetic with oem filter.
  • 12/15/18 at 79,684 miles new cabin filter.
  • 3/10/19 at 80,083 miles new coolant tank, valve cover gasket and AFE air filter.
  • 3/30/19 at 80,266 miles bled brakes with ATE 200 fluid.
  • 4/20/19 at 80,327 miles
    • replaced radiator with new Behr due to seepage at tanks.
    • installed new 'O' rings on cps and dip stick tube.
    • replaced rt strut mount and balljoint due to cracks.
    • drained and replaced trans fluid with Mobil 1 75w-90.
    • replaced power steering tank cap 'O' ring.
    • installed 25mm Hotchkis hollow rear sway bar.
    • blue tooth add-on to factory stereo
I drove the car to MOTD and it performed flawlessly. Let me know if there are any questions. Thanks for looking, Garry.
