Looking to part with my beloved Mini Cooper S. Last year for the supercharged R53. Space blue metallic with silver roof and hood stripe, blue/black interior. The car is in good condition, but does need some TLC as any 15 year old car would. The oil and transmission fluid were changed last year, I installed new hatch and hood struts, new plugs/wires/coil, and a new battery. The leather seats have some wear, but are in good condition overall. It has heated seats (both work), front/rear fog lights, stability control (DSC), xenon headlights, and moonroof. I have owned the car for a year and half. It was garaged all of last winter on a battery tender.

The good:

• No rust!
• Dinan air intake
• Dinan strut tower brace
• Dinan pulley
• JCW (John Cooper Works) exhaust (sounds great!)
• Factory accessory gauges (boost and volts)
• Factory aero package
• Factory LSD (limited slip differential)!
• Harman Kardon sound

The bad:

• Front motor mount needs to be replaced. I have the parts (upper and lower), but have not had the time to do it.
• The wheels need to be refinished. I was quoted $125/wheel to get them refinished with silver paint. You can go that way or find some used Mini S-Lites for a few hundred dollars.
• The front aero spoiler has a lot of chips. I have touch up paint, but haven’t had time to address it.
• Tires will probably have to be replaced in the near future. One of the rear struts was loose when I bought it (which has been fixed) and caused some scalloping on the tires.

I also have a power steering line kit that I was going to install proactively, but there’s nothing wrong with the power steering now. Why am I selling it? We are building a cabin up north and going back and forth a lot with two kids, bikes, and a dog. I don't have time to work on it let alone drive it much. I would really like this car to go to a good home that will appreciate it as it’s a very unique Mini. $6,250/obo. Contact me with any questions.

 

Hey my man, what is the milage on this? Didn't see it in the post.
