A/C ice cold, All scheduled maintenance, Always garaged, Looks & drives great, Must see, Satellite radio, Seats like new, Title in hand, Upgraded sound system, Very clean interior, Well maintained Just bought a few months ago and would not be selling it if the wife wasn't pregnant with our first kid. This is very fast and agile car that is a blast to drive. It does have a few scuffs on the bumpers from the previous owner but it still looks fantastic as you can see from the pictures. Tires are in good shape and I had it aligned professionally recently. Brakes are about 6 months old and have great bite. This an awesome car don't let it pass you by.
1a.) These are the mechanical modifications I know of:
a.) Lowered - I don't know how many inches. Whomever lowered the car did not replace the rear control arms and the rear tires were bald on the inside because of the negative(?)camber. I replaced the control arms and had the car's bearings checked and had an alignment done professionally. The rear tires were replaced and balanced at the same time. Incidentally, I had hired the company eBay uses to check out a car when you cannot inspect it in person. He called me while he was inspecting it and said that there weren't any leaks, A/C was ice cold, etc. etc. But he didn't catch the tires which was a safety issue. But everything else was in good shape mechanically. As for the springs and shocks they are plenty stiff and this thing can take corners while flying.
b.) Short air intake
c.) MSD Ignition
d.) Custom Magnaflow exhaust
1b.) These are the cosmetic modifications that I know of:
a.) Clear middle tail light - blinks several times when brake pedal is pressed and then goes solid (cool safety feature)
b.) Front Halo Parking/Turn-signal lights
c.) 4 fog lights
d.) Aftermarket front grill
e.) Aftermarket Rims (Shoei?)
f.) Carbon fiber bonnet scoop
g.) Black headlights (I installed these)
h.) Carbon fiber sideview mirrors
i.) Carbon fiber rear hatch handle
j.) Smoked LED/Incandescent hybrid tail lights (I installed these)
k.) Custom black tachometer and speedometer
l.) Carbon fiber center console pillars
m.) Kenwood Excelon headunit with XM/Sirius receiver (yes the steering wheel controls work :D) - Rockford Fosgate component speakers in the front and Kenwood 6x9s in the back - Pioneer Sealed Subwoofer powered by a 250w Jenson amp, which is plenty loud for the size of the car(I installed the system)
2.) I do not know who did the mods other than the ones I did myself.
3.) There are minor scuffs on the rear bumper that are just your typical dings and scratches.
4.) The only issues that I have had with the car were:
a.) The previously mentioned alignment/tire issue
b.) The driver's side door quit unlocking with the key fob. This seems to be a pretty common thing with the mini's and was easily fixed. All I had to do was pull the lock actuator out of the door and open it and reset a cable. I went ahead and cleaned it up and re-greased all of the mechanical pieces while i was in there. It is working just fine now :)
5.) I do not have service records. I purchased this car in June '12 so i have only had it for 8 months. The only servicing done to it were the previously mentioned alignment and an oil change I did myself with Castrol Syntec (I did it the proper way too with a new magnetic drain plug and all that). I also cleaned the intake filter and replaced the cabin filter last week.
There may be other mods that I dont know of. I'm just mechanically competent to a point and then I let the professionals take over. I do have the official Bentley manual for the car and it will come with it free of charge if you want it. The book has been invaluable for the work that I have done.

Classic Rover Mini is a passion-inspiring plaything
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Ask anyone that's driven a classic Mini, and they'll probably tell you that their first reaction to driving it was a lot like the start of this video - whooping, shouting, laughing and a whole lot of smiling. This video, from Jon Quirk, editor-in-chief at Auto Trader UK, highlights the connection between him and his Rover Mini Paul Smith. He really nails the man-machine interface that makes owning a great car so much fun. Besides that, Quirk does a good job of enumerating what is so enjoyable about driving a fun car on a twisting road.
For our British readers, this video is also meant to test the waters for a new format from Auto Trader UK, called "I Bought One." With Quirk's Mini, the car-buying site is looking at telling the story of people and their interesting cars. We think this video is a great start, with high production value and solid content. Head on over to the YouTube channel, and let them know what you think. But first, scroll on down for the entire video on this awesome Rover Mini.
Mini reveals new John Cooper Works concept ahead of Detroit
Tue, 17 Dec 2013BMW effectively hit the reset button when it unveiled the new Mini at the LA Auto Show last month, opening the door to a whole raft of new variants to follow - and this is the first.
Set to be unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show next month is the new Mini John Cooper Works Concept, a show car that previews the next hot hatch from the Anglo-Saxon automaker. Mini isn't saying much about what makes it tick, focusing instead of the design that sets it apart from the standard version we've already seen.
This JCW concept features a lustrous grey paintjob with bright red accents, 18-inch alloys and an upgraded aero kit, all aimed at making the Mini look that much sportier. It's got bigger air intakes where the fog lights would be, LED headlamps, a black grille frame, side skirts, a rear bumper with diffuser insert and a roof-mounted spoiler.
