2005 Mini Cooper! No Reserve!!!!
This is a 2005 Mini Cooper. It has 129,213 miles on it. It is a very fun car to drive as it has the 5 speed manual transmission. This car is not perfect and needs some work, but it is going to make someone very happy. And if you know how to work on a Mini this car will be for you!
I tried to take pictures of everything. The car is blue in color, leather two tone interior and a very large power sunroof. Power windows, power locks, air bags and air conditioning. And up until recently it never had a problem. Also it is NOT the turbo S version.
I have some some issues with the driver's side door. The window mechanism is messed up. A mechanic put two vise grips on to hold the window in place. Obviously in the up position. He said the pulley system needed work. The side panel is also coming off. I am sorry I know very little about car mechanics and just trying to be as honest as possible.
The heater also does not work. There are issues with the coil and there was a leak. A mechanic stopped the leak but there is no longer heat.
Because I have not driven the car in a while the battery was dead. I had AAA charge it but they said (while it is holding a charge now) it will need a new battery.
The major issue with the car is the engine has what I have been told has a blown gasket. I was driving the car to work and it started to overheat. I called AAA and they loaded the car on their flatbed and brought it back to the garage. I was told that a gasket blew and radiator fluid leaked into the engine oil. He said it would take a lot of labor to fix.
There may be other small issues with the car as it is used and obviously being sold as is. The car runs now but it will overheat fairly quickly. Again the car needs work.
I am now packing up for college and my Dad said to just sell it on eBay to the highest bidder. If you know how to fix cars I think this would be a great project. If you don't work on them yourself than this may not be the best car for you. But like I said, this car was a blast to drive. I was going to get another one but there is not a Mini dealer in Maine.
I should also mention I purchased the car in Texas. Not in Maine. So the body is in great shape. I drove it up to Maine last year.
NOTES: PLEASE READ.
1.) I will do my best to answer any questions but I do not know much about car mechanics.
2.) The car is being sold "as-is". I have tried to be honest but I can only repeat what I have been told by others mechanics as to the issues with the car. The current issues may be easy to fix or major repairs. I simply do not know. This is a project car.
3.) You will NOT want to drive the car away as it will overheat. It will need to be towed or picked up with a flatbed. This obviously means I am also not able to meet anybody to deliver the car. It will have to be picked up at my parking garage in Portland, Maine. I have the clear title. There are no plates on the car.
4.) The winner buyer MUST pay by with CASH or BANK CHECK at time of pick up. We can also accept PayPal for any portion of the purchase price.
5.) The car must be paid for and picked up before August 1st as I am leaving to college. That is why it is only a 5 day auction. You can pick it up at my parking garage in Portland, Maine.
This car IS being sold to the highest bidder with NO reserve. It much be sold and picked up by August 1st!!
Thanks and Good Luck!

Mini knows how you take your coffee after a test drive
Thu, 11 Oct 2012Mini Netherlands wanted to give its countrymen a good reason to test drive its cars, so it threw in a free cup of coffee with the spin - but not just any old cuppa joe. Cars were fitted with a sensor that analyzed the driver's style. The chip was then placed in a special coffeemaker that produced a blend to match the driving; middle-of-the-road test pilots would get a lungo (long) coffee, test-the-rollcage types were given a ristretto (short, and stronger).
The knock on the head for U.S. drivers? Milquetoast test drivers were given an Americano - a watered-down espresso. You can watch the unique promotion at work in the video below.
BMW will show Mini EV concept at Frankfurt
Wed, Aug 30 2017A month ago, BMW announced that it would electrify all its brands and model lines, including the Mini hatchback. A forthcoming full-electric Mini will enter production in 2019 at the Mini plant in Oxford, England, where the production line would join a German-built electric drivetrain with a British-built body. BMW notes that this will happen exactly 60 years after the original Mini hit the streets. View 5 Photos As the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show is upon us, BMW has introduced the concept version of the aforementioned electric Mini. The manufacturer says the color scheme chosen for the concept matches the previous electrified Mini, the experimental Mini E of 2008. That car was produced in a trial run of 600 units, and it provided BMW with valuable data as it was developing the i3 model, currently on the market. The Mini Electric Concept is powered by a lithium-ion battery, but no numerical specifications or range figures have been announced. It will be interesting to see whether the driving fun inherent to Minis can be translated, as a battery electric vehicle will undoubtedly be heavier than a fossil-fuel hatchback. The closed front grille stands as testament for doing without pistons or a need for engine cooling.

Mini Paceman modified by Roberto Cavalli for annual Life Ball charity
Fri, 10 May 2013This year's award for Life Ball Mini designer goes to Roberto Cavalli. The Life Ball is a charity event held in Vienna, Austria every year that raises money to fight the spread of HIV and AIDS. Since 2001, the year of its reintroduction, Mini has been involved with the ball, auctioning a car that has been made over by a world-famous designer. This year Cavalli gets the nod and a Paceman for a canvas.
The iridescent brown/black paint is the eye-catcher in the sketch above (click to enlarge), but don't forget to note Cavalli's logo on the roof. We're not sure what other flourishes he has in mind for the car, but those in attendance will find out on May 24 when it's unveiled at the Cavalli store opening in Vienna. The press release below has more details.
