I just put $5k in there as a placeholder. I'd pay more than that. I've offered more than that for some. I'll change asap. Thanks for pointing that out.

I see you changed it! O.K., I'll sell for that...with a full tank of gas and lots of spares...will deliver, too.
p.s.: As an added bonus, we'll throw in the 2006 GP. It doesn't have a sunroof, either.

Silver / Black R53 Perfect

I see you are looking for an R53 with NO Sunroof...

I have an 05 Silver with Black roof S with the JCW Package updates. It's not a factory JCW but it has the body kit and many of the upgrades. It also has the 16% Pulley installed at Helix MotorSports in Philly. It has just 56K miles on it and has been serviced and had everything needed done to it. All the items that were issues on other Mini's have been upgraded and or replaced.
When they installed the upgrade last year at Helix Motors the mechanic said this was the cleanest R53 he has seen in years.!!

I have all the maintenance records since new, but am not the original owner. I am the 3rd I believe.

Give me a shout at jcarreira@jccomputing.net if interested in talking more about it.

P.S. I am on the fence as I Love Driving this car, but unfortunately only drive it several times a year in Nice weather. It is kept in a garage of course and to my knowledge has never been driven in snow or bad weather. Pampered would be an understatement. Looking for $13,000

Thanks,
Joe C.......

thanks for looking out for me! I ran across that and chatted with the owner. He doesn't know much about any mods that are on the car. It appears to have an aftermarket intake and air diverter for the intercooler. There might be a treasure chest under there for someone who can see it in person!

Might want to avoid this one, bigot is always hard to clean from the interior.

He probably had to google "antisemite".

You don't want this car.. the rockers panels and driver's seat cushion are sure to be worn down from his knuckles dragging across them every time he enters/exits car.

Thanks for the pointer. I found another. She's an absolute monster. I close the sale next week. I'll be posting plenty of pics in the 1st gen section of the site. I have some plans but it doesn't need much.
