1971 Mini Cooper "S" MARK III
Offered for sale is a well prepared, great running Mini. I have owned the car for over 7 years and have enjoyed owning it every minute. After purchasing it I basically went through the entire car and rebuilt or replaced everything. I had a well known West Coast Mini engine builder go through the engine. It went through it all (complete list of details available on request) over $4000 invested in machine work and labor, not including parts, etc. Car runs amazing. Engine (1360cc) was dyno'd and peaked at 82.2hp at 6200RPM at the wheels. Tq. measured at 78.8 at 4800 RPM. (Dyno available as well) The car has all your standard "S" features: front disc brakes, twin tanks and the 140mph speedo. Paint is driver quality and presents well as I had nothing but driving on my mind while it was being built. (There are areas of rust on the floor and rear trunk like many Mini's, minor repairs were done to prevent further issues) No trailer queens for me!! The interior is completely restored. I had larger seats installed and had everything recovered. Seats are a combination of textured and perforated vinyl. New carpet and a really nice Suede headliner. The list of parts is too long (complete invoice is available for review) but in a nut shell; everything is new. Car is running a coil spring suspension along with front and rear sway bars. I was pleasantly surprised with the ride quality and the amazing performance. Car is on 10" Mini Lites and Yokohama's. A great city car with tons of grunt!! A street legal slot car or go kart!!! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me via ebay.

2014 Mini John Cooper Works Countryman All4
Fri, 11 Apr 2014The standard Mini Countryman is a bit of an odd duck against the backdrop of 'normal' small crossovers like the Mazda CX-5 and the Ford Escape, but I sort of get it. Apply the same winning Mini formula to a CUV, and you get a smaller-than-average entry in the segment, one that is far more entertaining to drive than the norm, more stylish inside and out and pretty expensive when cross-shopped. That list of qualities doesn't appeal to all crossover shoppers, sure, but it intrigues a big enough list that the Countryman has reason for being.
Now, add the expensive John Cooper Works package to the Countryman's already niche goodies list, and Mini starts to lose me. So, I'm getting the softer suspended, taller, generally less dynamically joyful version of the brand's core values, but now you're charging me at least $35,000 ($13k more expensive than the basic, front-drive Cooper Countryman and $7k more than the MSRP of the Cooper S All4 version)? What's that? You're going to make it look like a garish, tippy-toed tuner car in the process? Take my money.
Or, actually, let me keep it. I can swing with a lot of the weirdness that Mini has to offer, but this car pushed me past my limit.
Mini John Cooper Works Paceman is a potent little hot hatch in a fat suit
Mon, 14 Jan 2013If there's one thing we're never going to complain about, it's that Mini has found it necessary to put the John Cooper Works treatment on every single one of its models. We love the JCW package across the board, and the final installment of the high-performance chapter (for now, anyway) comes in the form of the John Cooper Works Paceman, debuting here at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
The John Cooper Works formula hasn't been altered in any way here, and like the JCW Countryman on which the Paceman is based, it comes standard with Mini's All4 all-wheel-drive system. We're sure it'll be a total hoot, and with 218 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque on tap, how could it not?
Look for the Mini JCW Paceman to hit dealerships in March of this year. Need to know more? Scroll down.
Mini Superleggera gets the green light
Tue, Mar 17 2015With the fairly lackluster designs coming out of Mini recently, leave it to a group from outside the company to get things right. The minds behind the Berlinetta Lusso and Disco Volante at Touring Superleggera did just that with the retro-inspired Mini Superleggera Vision Concept from last year's Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance. Now, according to Car in the UK, the droptop has a green light for production from the BMW board and could arrive in showrooms by 2018. The concept stole our hearts with its rounded shape, rear fin and Union-Jack-shaped taillights. Inside, the interior went for extreme minimalism with an aluminum dashboard that positioned just a simple tachometer and thin steering wheel in front of the driver. The production version reportedly rides on the third-gen Mini platform but retains all of the concept's major styling elements. In place of the electric motor, expect the current engine offerings with a 1.5-liter three-cylinder and a 2.0-liter four-cylinder available under the hood. Patent documents might provide an even better hint at what to expect. They also show the design not changing much, other than the lights no longer in the grille, a framed windshield and slightly smaller fin. The Union Jack taillights remain, though. Peter Schwarzenbauer, BMW Group member in charge of Mini, asserted the company was testing the waters for production shortly after the Superleggera's debut. At the time, the price was speculated to be around 35,000 euros if the car arrived on the market in Europe. Related Video:
