If it runs ... and is not in imminent danger of dying... it’s a no brainer for the price of a used geo metro ...

dings and scratches are to be expected along with things like minor oil leaks, tires, brakes etc are to be expected on a sub $5000 mini with Aero

when well maintained on 2006 ... 130k is ‘mid life

You can always tell a northeast car by looking underneath, 28k miles, and a few winters lol.

And you can tell city cars from the scratched bumpers and curbed rims. Sadly this low miles car didn’t have an easy life.

And I think I would have yanked that rack off the roof and sold it separately or offered it on the side as an accessory.

Is the rack so that you can bring your mechanic along on long trips?

Dealer had it for 1000 miles...drove it thru the car wash right before the pics. I would of at minimum pulled the leaves out from the radiator, and maybe even a little paint correction. Looks like it sat in a garage a lot, with a nice coat of salt stuck to the undercarriage. The low mileage is the highlight.

VERY low mileage Electric Blue R53 Cooper S in Vancouver. I hope someone buys this soon because it’s going to haunt me until it’s gone.

Yep, not a factory JCW according to the VIN, but a really late build at the end of R53 production, Oct. 27, 2006.

I’ve read the really late cars had R56(S) brakes from the factory, but don’t know if there’s any truth to it since the Cabrios were still being produced until 2008 and, AFAIK, still had 1st gen calipers.

Every car Park Place list is listed for at least 30% above market - I hope the current owner paid nowhere near $16k for that car if they're selling it for $7.500 only 10k miles later

I communicated with her about it 4 or 5 weeks ago - very nice person to deal with. Be aware that it has been in an accident, and the accident is reported on the Carfax. Also, it has leatherette seats rather than leather seats.

I like it and it doesn't have Aero and has the sunroof that I like !!
Not a fan of the checkered mirrors/spoiler/mats... but that is easy stuff.
Hood graphics and scoop .... not my style...easy as well to correct.

Drivers seat leatherette is not cracked up... and I have an anthracite HL/pillars set for it too !

Worth the price if as represented... no engine pix... and it is a bit dirty for a "babied, garaged" ride ....

Might be worth the 9 hr trip south !! HMMM.
