Hello members

I've been a Mini owner for 5 years and sold mini cooper r50 few months ago. Tomorrow i will be looking at a mini cooper s r53 late 2005 with 180,000 KM . Anything i should be looking for except clutch , oil leaks and steering pump ?

Thank you

 

Here ya go:

 

Yep thats basically it. Good luck with finding a good specimen !

 

Also:

 

Best thing to look for is service records. Finding one that’s already replaced the clutch and serviced the supercharger, etc... is probably the best way to go in the long run.

I would have done the same but couldn’t handle the initial price of what the extremely well maintained coopers were asking. I ended up getting one with 83k miles but needs work to get it to where I want it.
