Potential Buy

Hi all,
New potential owner, drove this 2012 Cooper S Convertible, 77k miles, drive nice, trans is good, everything works, though has the "Needs Service Triangle" not sure for what. Its a 1 owner servcied at a BMW/Mini dealer in TN. Outside of that, nothing glaring, but a lot of cosmetic flaws, especially around the windshield and convertible top with the moldings, probably from Tennessee heat for last 10 years. Interior is pretty good, needs some cleaning and detailing. Probably never cleaned the tail pipe. May low ball, but how does this pricing seem?

The small triangle your driven miles, or a full check engine light?

The small triangle is usually just a blown bulb. if it's a CEL in the center dash, you'll need to read out the codes.

Also, the convertible top molding is easy to change, but not cheap anymore.
