Always garaged and has not been driven in rain or snow for the last 7 years. Car has no rust of any kind.

No recent service on either, but no noticeable issues either. Power Steering Pump and fan were replaced before I bought the car, so no need to make a warranty claim on them. Happy to answer any other questions. Thx!

Springtime Bump! Mini will be coming out of storage and is ready for a new home. Price is negotiable, so all reasonable offers will be evaluated.

Bump. New battery just installed. Car needs nothing at this point. Drives and runs beautifully. Roof rack has been removed, but is available if buyer wants to buy it as well.

How much for the roof rack? This looks like the Yakima mount that is mounted to the trim along the roof-line, vs the mini-brand mount that requires drilling?

Bump! Price drop to $7100.

Also to answer jkluesner's question for others as well, the mounts are Thule mounts. They did not drill into the roof and have rubber feet that protect the roof. The rack has been removed and left no mark whatsoever on the roof of the car. Current picture below.
