IT PASSES SMOG.
This MINI has been a daily driver since purchased from the original owner in 2006. The car has routinely outperformed the driver on the track and has been meticulously maintained. For an 13 year old car the paint is near perfect and has been very well cared for with Griot's Garage products. The car has been garaged its whole life up until a few months ago.

Recent Maintenance completed in the last 1,500 miles:
-A/C Condenser Clutch repaired. A/C works great and blows cold the way you want it to for summer.
-Driver side window regulator/motor repaired.
-Oil Change completed.
-Driver side front wheel hub/bearing replaced with quality Timken unit and race lug studs installed with Loctite, everything torqued to spec per factory manuals.
-Rear hatch struts replaced as they were beginning to sag.
-Taillight bulb replaced.

Other notes:
1) A new OEM -- ENGINE and TRANSMISSION - Short Block Part # 11000430233 was installed @ 100,556 miles (roughly 10,XXX miles on new short block). I have all receipts.
2) The tint installed by the previous owner is showing a few wrinkles
3) Small scuff (quarter sized) on the rear bumper
4) Rock chip on windshield (happened in August and has not spread)
5) Slight tear (2 in.) on driver's seat

Spare parts included for buy it now price only:
-Set of tinted tail lights
-Black aero grill
-Spare tire kit with jack and tools
-Mini Cooper factory car cover
-Driver and passenger 4-point Schroth Harness
-1 x Mini Cooper pulley tool
-1 x Spare driver window motor
-1 x Spare Timken front wheel hub/bearing assembly
-4 racing lug studs from Bimmerworld
-2 x Imported Mann Oil Filters
-4 x lug bolt
-spare taillight bulb

Selling due to a new vehicle occupying the garage space and this vehicle now only being driven once a week. This car has about $20,000 in extras and is easily one of the best handling vehicles I've owned and IMO handles better than my previously owned Porsche 911 Turbo, E30 BMW M3, or WRX STI. The steering and turn-in is like no other and this vehicle is ready for the canyons or track. This is not a vehicle for the feint hearted.  Email for more pictures.

Honda engines and giant killing in the classic Mini Cooper

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Electric Federal has taken a fresh look back at the enduring legacy of original Mini with a video interview with Heritage Garage's Graham Reid, one of the foremost experts on classic Minis. As Electric Federal points out, it's important to remember that the Mini did not start out as a performance car. It was built in response to the Suez Canal crisis of the mid-50s, which had a similar effect on British gas prices as OPEC did on American prices in the 1970s - rationing and rapid price jumps.
Through the years, Minis have grown from their budget roots to become seriously competent performance machines. As Reid says, a 150-horsepower Mini on the right track should have no problem outpacing a contemporary Porsche 911.
For some time now, classic Mini owners have been dropping Honda engines under the tiny hoods of their classics. With up to 250 horsepower pulling a car that tips the scales at barely 1,200 pounds, the upgraded Mini is "a real sleeper," Reid says. Interestingly, Reid doesn't mention another increasingly common swap in the Mini community - Suzuki Hayabusa-powered Coopers.

Lots of Land Rovers, Jaguars and Minis actually survived that near-capsized ship

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Despite a severe list to starboard, many of the 1,400 cars and SUVs aboard the 51,000-ton Hoegh Osaka are currently being recovered in salvageable condition, with video showing some of the vehicles from British brands Land Rover, Jaguar and Mini, being driven ashore under their own power. The car-carrying vessel developed a severe list on January 3 and was intentionally run aground on a sandbar between England and the Isle of Wight. It has since limped its way back to port in Southampton, where damage assessments are being conducted on both the ship and its $53-million in cargo. According to the company that owns the car carrier, the ship itself only suffered minor damage in the incident, while Car and Driver is reporting that many of the damaged vehicles will almost certainly be scrapped. Still, the fact that there are vehicles, some of which appear undamaged (look at that Defender at 0:50!), being removed from the Hoegh Osaka needs to count as a net win.

Sell-it-yourself: 2014 Mini Cooper S

Tue, May 2 2017

Looking to sell your car? We make it safe, easy, and free. Quickly create listings with up to six photos and reach millions of buyers. Log in and create your free listings. There are few things more immediate in modern motoring than the Mini Cooper S. Fiat's 500 Abarth may come close, but the Abarth's smaller footprint makes it more one-dimensional. The Cooper S brings you two dimensions: fun – and more fun. With each redesign the Cooper hardtop grows larger, but this remains a tidy size for those navigating urban or suburban sprawl. And with the higher horsepower of the Cooper S engine connected to its standard six-speed manual, you'll never want for acceleration or reasonably relaxed cruising. Fuel efficiency is mainly dictated by your right foot. Our for-sale Cooper S with 24,000 miles looks to be in clean condition. Value guides suggest the price is slightly below what a private seller would ask and well below the retail at a dealership. With a clean Carfax and pre-purchase inspection, this is huge fun for relatively little money. Check out the listing for yourself here.
