Up for sale is my 2003 Mini Cooper S with 136k miles. I bought this in summer of 2018; PO had bought it in need of repair, which was all done by a certified BMW mechanic. At the time, the car had a new head gasket installed, supercharger rebuilt by a professional (Dustin at AutoXcooper) with a 15% pulley installed, as well as new thermostat and housing, water pump, radiator, belts, hoses, and plugs.

He got the car put together but had to sell it due to health issues. I purchased the vehicle and did several mods and minor repairs to really boost the supercharger whine and performance. Since 6/18, I have replaced the front speakers and CD player (BT capable Pioneer), the throttle body gasket, lower supercharger intake gasket, IC boots, intake to IC horn gasket, intake manifold gasket, coolant reservoir, CAS sensor o-ring, serpentine belt, injector o-rings. For upgrades, I’ve added an Autometer boost gauge, lightweight crank pulley, ALTA intake, and VGS mod. I also have most of the original parts, as well as some extras like a car cover, serpentine belt tool, etc. that I can throw in with the car.

Overall, car is in good shape for a 17 year old vehicle. No CEL’s or known performance issues. She runs like a top and is a blast to drive. I’d have no issue driving it across the country today, and would get 30 MPG doing it.

The car does have a few minor issues; all are easily fixable, but never bothered me enough to address. Both door lock actuators are not functioning, so they would need repaired or replaced if you don’t want to use the key in the door like I do. Leather on driver’s seat shows some wear and has a ripped stitch, which could easily be repaired or recovered if you wanted. Other than that, it’s just typical wear and tear, minor paint chips, etc. that go along with the age of the vehicle.

I’m asking $3900 for the car. No lowballs, no trades, just cash. Willing to work with the right buyer, but I’m not in a rush to sell the car. I’m located in Middletown, DE, close to Philly, Baltimore, Jersey, DC area.

 

This is pretty much on point with what I'm looking for. Wish you were on this side of the country. Good luck with your sale!
