. Since I had not been receiving any bites, I stopped paying attention to it and never renewed it to keep it in longer. Didn't see the use. Probably a bad decision on my part. When I went back after several suggestions on this site, they don't have record of it since it was several months ago. Hesitant to shell out the $$ again based on previous lack of success.

It is in excellent condition, garage kept. It does have CVT instead of 5-speed and has 42K miles which are factored into the KBB price.
Has anyone else out there been trying to sell their Mini with or without success? What seems to work? Watching e-bay prices seems to show that doesn't work, as most have topped out a several thousand $$ below asking price.
Thanks
