R53 For Sale
Year: 0
Price: $0
Mileage: 0
Today I took the Mini to a bunch of places, in preparation for a quick sale. Here is a list of what I did:
-Brought the car into the shop for a full diagnostic and maintenance. Everything is 100% Healthy and Strong
-Complete Oil Change Done Today As Well
-Replaced all 4 tires with Brand New Tires Set
-Brought the car in for an exterior and interior detail
-Passed Emissions
-Taillights were cloudy so I got two new Mini taillights fitted as well
[This car has never been tracked! Not yet at least]
Clean Title. Title in Hand. 29 mpg Highway. 26 mpg mixed. About 16,500 miles only. The reason is because the original motor was replaced with a NEW (not rebuilt) Revolution Motorworks (RMW) 1.6 L engine. The original motor was not blown or anything, just upgraded. 240 hp 200 lbs torque, this Mini is FAST. The body of the Mini has about 89,000 Miles on it. Also has a OEM John Cooper Works LSD Transmission installed which was installed around 40,000 Miles. Radiator was recently replaced as well. Every oil change, the old oil looks literally new and clear, the motor is literally brand new. Full Madness Motorworks V2 exhaust and header. No "Mushrooming" struts and strut towers are 100%
There are a ton of upgrades, I will make a list below with the amount that was paid. To be clear, I personally did not instal or do any of the work. All of the work for every upgrade for this car has been done by a certified shop (for example the engine was installed by MiniMotorworx in LA next door to Revolution MotorWorks, where the motor was purchased). I have most all of the paperwork still which I can provide.

The negative things about the car:
-A small plastic molding on the drivers side hood is missing and will need to be replaced
-The interior shows normal wear of a 2003 vehicle
-Headliner is sagging a little bit (again normal signs of wear and tear of a 12 year old vehicle)
Essentiality there is some cosmetic damage, but all can be fixed. The motor and everything mechanical is 100%. Extremely strong, new and healthy.
The total amount that this car is worth (Not even including the value of the car itself):
$18,492
Add that to the Kelly Blue Book value of the car which is about $6,000 and the current "used value of the car" is:
$24,492
I am asking $12,500, especially since above all the car only has 16,500 miles on it, this engine is a race motor, it was build for the track. I only drive it as a daily and have never tracked it nor raced it, this motor will basically last forever if well taken care of.
Price might be slightly negotiable, first come first serve. Please message me with questions or for a test drive if you are interested. Looking forward to hearing from you!
