Maybe it has the same tires Fred Flintstone used!

The MCS is 2002 with 18264 miles on it so it is possible that the tires were worn out and then replaced with OEM Pirelli Eufori runflats in which case they might last about 20,000 more miles which could be about 2 years if you didn't drive that much per year. The pictures are low quality so you cannot easily see how much tread is left exactly. The tread pattern is consistent with Pirelli Eufori rather than Dunlop S9000. The MINI looks like it was kept in good shape with cruise control and sport package.

Tread in this pic looks OK. Just boastful advertising.

 

Not sure what the all the fuss is about. I have tires that will last for years as well. My stock runflats, sitting in my garage.

 

Once againg that proves that it is impossible to trust E-BAY, my eurofire tires form pirelly have less than 15,000 miles and I am looking for different ones, if the case is that the car has run flat tires.

Also the have a couple of inconsistency on the specs of the car.

Interior

Cup Holders (LETS CALL IT CAN HOLDER) just a joke

Inline Style Engine (?????) It is that a sell driven Q?

4 Air Bags (Did they remove the other 2?)

 

Is it safe to assume my Pirelli runflats won't last much past 20K? Normally I would be upset about that except these are the first runflats I've owned. I've had the MCS for about 10 days now. The rf's are way too firm/hard for my tastes. The car I traded in had some type of all season Michelin and they were really nice.

 

lol yeah, that's funny, Cove Motoring is about a mile from my house. It's the smallest dealership known to man, and that's the only Mini they have on the lot.
