I'm looking to pickup a mini cooper s in the near future. I am currently looking at a few 2006 models. Is there anything specific I need to be looking out for?

How to I tell if it has stability control, sport suspension, or xenon lights?

Is there anything that everyone looks for in a mini, like a particular package?

 

Any other forums out there that see more action than this?

 

Since sport and stability are hard to discern from stock it's easiest to take the Vin to the dealer and have them run it for the list of options from the factory ...
Xenons are self evident look at the headlight if there is a projector beam on top it's Xenon HID , if you can see a bulb it's standard
