This listing is for a 2009 Mini Cooper Base 1.6L, this vehicle has approximately 64000 miles.  My wife and I bought this vehicle for our daughter from a seller in Clearwater, Florida on March 2013. Shortly after purchasing the car, I discovered the thermostat on the vehicle had a small leak causing the engine to overheat. The vehicle was towed to the dealership and it was suggested that I replace the engine. I contacted the seller who happens to be a mechanic for Mini of Tampa who agreed to do the headgasket job on the car. The head cylinder was skimmed and head gasket was replaced. The car rode fine until suddenly now I am having a misfiring issue. I have avoided driving the car to avoid further damage. I have not had a diagnostic check done on the vehicle. After the headgasket job was done, I replaced the following: I bought a brand new key and had it programmed. I changed the rear brake pads, I purchased the front ones but I did not install them due the ones on the vehicle have plenty of life left. I will provide the brake pads for the front. All 4 tires are in excellent shape with plenty of  thread on them. The water pump, pipe, and thermostat were replaced with the updated version since this was a known problem with Mini. The coils and spark plugs were replaced. I also purchased a refurbished valvetronic actuator since it was recommended by the dealership. The windows on the car were also tinted. I originally purchased the car for $10,000 but have invested $3000 in repairs. Once the car started to misfire, my wife and I decided to let the car go to someone knowledgeable with vehicle repairs. The car appears to have some cross contamination between the radiator fluid and oil but somehow the radiator reservoir is holding coolant just fine.

The interior of this vehicle is in excellent shape. There are no stains, tears, or rips. The car has never been smoked in. 

The roof does need to be painted, overall the car looks in great shape. 

 The carfax shows there was a minor accident when it belonged to the first owner. I am the 3rd. This car is for sale locally. Please contact me if you have any questions. Buyer is responsible for checking the vehicle prior to purchase. I have disclosed everything wrong with this vehicle. I prefer to have a buyer who is local in the area that can inspect the vehicle prior to purchase. This is a cash transaction.

Sell-it-yourself: 2014 Mini Cooper S

Tue, May 2 2017

Looking to sell your car? We make it safe, easy, and free. Quickly create listings with up to six photos and reach millions of buyers. Log in and create your free listings. There are few things more immediate in modern motoring than the Mini Cooper S. Fiat's 500 Abarth may come close, but the Abarth's smaller footprint makes it more one-dimensional. The Cooper S brings you two dimensions: fun – and more fun. With each redesign the Cooper hardtop grows larger, but this remains a tidy size for those navigating urban or suburban sprawl. And with the higher horsepower of the Cooper S engine connected to its standard six-speed manual, you'll never want for acceleration or reasonably relaxed cruising. Fuel efficiency is mainly dictated by your right foot. Our for-sale Cooper S with 24,000 miles looks to be in clean condition. Value guides suggest the price is slightly below what a private seller would ask and well below the retail at a dealership. With a clean Carfax and pre-purchase inspection, this is huge fun for relatively little money. Check out the listing for yourself here.

Mini stretches its legs with new Clubman Vision Gran Turismo concept [w/video]

Thu, Feb 26 2015

The Clubman may not be the first model you think of when it comes to sporty Minis, but with the next-generation wagon variant just around the corner, the Anglo-Saxon automaker is evidently keen to reshape the Clubman's image, using it as the basis for its Vision Gran Turismo concept. Designed entirely for the virtual reality of Gran Turismo 6, the Mini Clubman Vision Gran Turismo may not be as extreme as some of the creations dreamed up by other automakers. But as far as Minis go, it's pretty out there. Into its beefed-up, long-roof form it packs a powertrain of undisclosed dimensions but producing 395 horsepower (and evidently requiring six tailpipes – two on each side and two out the back). Exhaust tips aside, all that muscle – nearly twice what any road-going Mini has produced to date – drives through all four wheels to theoretically deliver it to 62 miles per hour in a scant 3.5 seconds. Throw in the track-tuned bodywork – including a proliferation of spoilers, added ventilation, a wider track and 22-inch rims – and you're looking at one very serious Mini indeed. But before you balk at the concept, consider that Mini has had some serious motorsport bragging rights over the years: it dominated the Monte Carlo Rally (among others) in the mid-1960s, and though it canceled its more recent World Rally Championship effort, it went on instead to win the Dakar Rally four years running now. What you're looking at here is the form it would likely take were Mini to shift its attention (as Citroen recently did) to touring cars instead. This content is hosted by a third party.

Inspired by the brand's legendary motor racing success, the MINI Design Team has created the essence of a MINI to enable maximum racing performance in the game Gran Turismo®6 for PlayStation®3. "MINI has many highly emotional achievements to its name in motor racing. The MINI Clubman Vision Grand Turismo literally puts these onto the virtual race track in Gran Turismo 6. The image of a go-kart on the road has recurring appeal," says Anders Warming, Head of MINI Design. The 395 hp engine accelerates the MINI Clubman Vision Gran Turismo from 0 to 100km/h in just 3.5 seconds.

Mini Superleggera patent renderings suggest production prospects

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Mini impressed us all when it revealed the Superleggera Vision concept at the Paris Motor Show a couple of months ago. But even before the little roadster concept debuted, there were already rumors of its production potential. And those rumors are only being further entrenched by the emergence of a series of patent renderings. Bearing much more than a passing resemblance to the concept, these images show what could be a revised, production version of the Superleggera, though not without its concessions to reality. For one thing, it looks like it's got a proper framed windshield, but it's hard to tell with the roof in place – something we never saw on the concept, either. It's also got more substantial wing mirrors, but the fin on the rear deck is still there, as are the extractor vents on the hood. We also note that the grille openings are the same shape as the concept's. Of course, the emergence of these images and their filing with the relevant authorities doesn't necessarily mean that Mini is moving ahead with the roadster's production. But if it did, it would likely ditch the concept's electric powertrain, and could stand to fill the void left by the discontinuation of the maligned, outgoing Mini Roadster that was essentially a scrunched Cabriolet with a cowling where the rear seats and stacked roof would be. Parent company BMW is likely taking into account that its rival Daimler didn't have much luck when it slotted a unique roadster of its own into the Smart lineup, so here's hoping that if it does give the Superleggera the green light, it'll have more success in the marketplace.
