I purchased this car a few years ago because I’ve always loved small, quick and good handling cars. It was a completely stock Florida car when I got it. It’s never seen salt and is rust free. The body isn’t perfect, but it is in very good shape for an 11 year old car with over 100K miles on it. Yes, I track the car but I’m also obsessive about maintenance and the condition of the car. I’ve done all the work myself and can total up $5K+ worth of mods. With me behind the wheel I’ve clocked 1:52 around mid-Ohio and I’m sure it’s got another second or two in it with a better driver. When I bought the car I specifically wanted an ‘06 because it is one of the most reliable Mini’s you can buy. The car is a hilarious amount of fun to drive. The reason I’m selling it is because I want to get more RWD experience on the race track.


Drive Train:
1.6L Supercharged
6 Speed Manual
I did the 100K service and replaced just about everything I could come up with while I was there.
Supercharger serviced and 15% overdrive pulley
Valeo single mass clutch with less than 10K miles. All components in the bellhousing replaced (T/O bearing, bushings, rear main seal, etc.)
New water pump
New aluminum t-stat housing and t-stat
New belt
New NGK plugs
New MSD Coil and wires
New radiator hoses
Fresh Redline trans fluid
Cardone rebuilt axles
New Moog wheel bearings
Canton aluminium overflow tank
New OEW PS Pump
Alta Catback Exhaust

Chassis/Suspension:
Megan coilovers (I’ll include the stock dampers and springs)
Motoring Madness adjustable rear sway bar (no understeer!)
Way Motor Works Front Strut Tower Brace
PolyPerformance LCA Bushings 10k miles on them
ball joints replaced 10K miles ago
Cabrio front chassis braces

Wheels/Tires/Brakes:
R56 Brakes with braided lines (I’ll include the stock R53 brakes)
Stoptech slotted rotors
Motul RBF 600 fluid
Montegi Racing MR119 Wheels 17x7
Continental Extreme Contact 215/45 R17 (less than 1000 miles)
Wheel stud conversion (easier to deal with than wheel bolts)

Interior:
Sparco R100 Seats on Sparco Rails and Planted brackets
Custom rear seat delete
I will include the factory leather seats both front and rear. The factory front seats are heated.

Misc:
Black aftermarket grill
Factor fog lights removed and replaced with custom brake vents
Rear wiper deleted
Dark tint all the way around


I have some other track related parts that I’m not including for the price, but if you’re interested we can work a deal. Montegi Racing SP10 wheels, Schroth clip in harnesses, undrilled front splitter (never installed).
