About this vehicle
This car started as a Project. I wanted a big turbo Mini Cooper but made a huge mistake. I did not sleeve the block(was not familiar with Minis to know) so essentially the GT28 turbo was useless. So I broke the car in and drove it about 28 miles home from the shop and began to tear it back down. I ordered a slightly bigger than stock Rev 9 turbo and was going to tune it to 350whp, which was the safe recommendation for a forged but not sleeved Mini to be reliable. The car has poly bushings, forged block and rebuilt head, new turbo, new downpipe, a custom Kevlar clutch, John Cooper Works transmission(50k miles on it) and John Cooper Works high pressure fuel pump. For proof, my build thread is on North American Motoring. In fact, you can Google "R55 Under the Knife She Goes" and it will pull right up. After driving the car home, it has sat for over a year due to me not having the time to work on it because of my job and family. Now we are moving so I have to get rid of it as we have to show the house soon. So I am selling it CHEAP, the cost of rebuilding the engine alone. This car has about 16k worth of parts/labor in it. If you email me at Drewsalem254@gmail.com, I can send you a video of me starting it for the first time and driving it homeSeller's Notes
