Hello, up for sale is a 2008 John Cooper Works. Due to the higher mileage this is a great opportunity to own a John Cooper Works at a very reasonable price. This car has been extremely well cared for. If the odometer didn't reflect 158K it could be easily be mistaken for a car with 58K. This vehicle has lived in Bedford, NH its entire life. I also live in Bedford. When it came up for sale I decided to pick it up as a winter car. After closely looking over the car I have decided it is far too special and clean to drive only in the winter months.

As new, this car was purchased with all the options. It is beautifully appointed with Pepper White paint and Gravity Tuscan Beige leather. The original owner had a clear 3m bra installed which remains on the hood, fenders, and front spoiler. It has been outfitted with convenience package (sports leather wheel, garage door openers, comfort access system keyless entry, auto dimming mirror, rains sensing wipers, and bluetooth) the cold weather package (power folding mirrors, heated mirrors and washer jets, heated front seats), premium package (dual sunroof, hifi sound, automatic AC), sport package, anthracite headliner, limited slip differential, chrome line interior, rear fog lights, xenon headlights, and white turn signals. As outfitted before the Works package the retail price was 30,550. Adding in the cooper works package easily brought this mini to the mid 30's. In addition, the car has a dealer installed garmin GPS and auxiliary input for audio.

There are a few small paint flaws where the bra ends on the hood. The tires could use to be replaced in the next 5-10K. The wheels have a couple spots where the clear coat has lifted. The vehicle has recently been serviced and the monitor system shows 10K remaining before next service. Car is very tight, accelerates well, sounds great, and stops on a dime. Clear NH title in hand. Priced well below NADA clean trade of $11475 and clean retail of $14550

Please see below for high resolution pictures and very clean car fax. You will not be disappointed with this car. It is VERY nice. Please do not hesitate to contact me for additional information on the car. I can be reached at (Brad) 413-478-4312 or by email. I would be happy to send pictures of specific area of question or concern.

Car has is also advertised locally. It appears the link to Carfax times out requiring a log in. Please send me a message with your email and I would be happy to forward the report.

New Zealand SPCA teaches rescue dogs how to drive a Mini

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

No, this isn't an April Fool's joke or some sort of wacky car commercial. It's the SPCA Auckland (located in New Zealand) coming up with an innovative way of proving that it's possible to teach a rescue animal new tricks. Monty, Porter and Ginny are all dogs rescued by the SPCA Auckland, and each was taught the ability to drive a Mini Countryman around a track.
After being strapped into the driver's seat, the dogs are able to use their paws to start the car, steer it and work the gas and brake, which have been modified similar to a car setup for a special-needs driver. These dogs aren't being trained to drive on the street as any sort of driving-eye dogs, rather it is just a demonstration of how smart and docile rescue dogs can be regardless of how they ended up there. Porter was found wandering the streets, Ginny was abused by her owners and seized by the SPCA and Monty was surrendered by his owners to the rescue. Ironically, Porter and Ginny initially got carsick during the exercises, but have since gotten over this.
Think it's a joke? Scroll down to watch four videos showing the dogs in action and another to see what mods were made to get the Mini ready for canine duty. In the first video, you can also see that Porter does a better parking job than most humans!

Mini unveils new, stripped down logo

Wed, Dec 13 2017

Quirky British marque Mini is going with a ... less-than-quirky logo redesign, unveiling a "flat design" that it says is intended to focus on the essentials. It replaces the three-dimensional white-on-black logo that first appeared in 2000. Gone are the three-dimensional style, shading, gray tones and gray-on-black name of the previous version in favor of a stark contrast of black lines and the all-caps Mini name against a white background. It keeps the wings, which first featured on the iconic cars in the early 1960s, according to the Logos History blog, which has a comprehensive collection of logos stretching back to the brand's origins in 1959 under the British Motor Corp. and the Austin and Morris brand names. It also bears a visual similarity to the logo introduced during the mid-'90s. We're not saying the new logo was designed on an old PC using MS Paint, but it looks like it could've been. Parent BMW Group says the new logo combines stylistic elements from the early phases of the classic Mini "with a future-oriented appearance that focuses on the essentials" and a two-dimensional look "allowing universal application." (Meaning, cheaper to produce?) It'll appear on all new Mini models starting in March on the bonnet, the rear, at the center of the steering wheel and on the remote control.Related Video: Image Credit: BMW Group Design/Style MINI Coupe Sedan branding logo bmw group

2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop officially revealed

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

There are occasions in life when something happens in the outside world and I think, "Damn. I wish Dad was here so we could talk about this."
In the past 13 years, that's happened every time Mini unveils a new model. And that's been quite often in the 12 years since the car was reintroduced - it has expanded to include seven different models, which is a testament to how quickly the updated Mini caught on. My Dad, who passed away in 1996, loved the brand. His first car was a Mini, and he'd race it in illegal rallies around the Irish countryside in his 20s, before he emigrated to the US and tried to (mostly) stay on the right side of the law.
Mini released photos and specs for the third-generation "original" hardtop car today. The company had to slap in the term "original" in there to differentiate it from the Convertible, longer-wheelbase Clubman, Countryman crossover, Paceman three-door crossover, Coupe and Roadster. Coming out with that many nameplates in 13 years is unprecedented growth for a company that's essentially brand-new in the US.
