2003 Mini Cooper S 77,000 Miles, 6 speed manual, Grey cloth seats, Front sliding sunroof rear fixed sunroof, Xenon headlights, Cold AC, Darkest legal ceramic tint on all windows including the sunroofs(cost $500 to have installed). Most of the exterior chrome has been blacked out including- aero package front grill, blacked out belt line, headlight trims painted black, base model black side scuttle trims, smoked scuttle turn signals, Base model fuel door. The engine has had a few upgrades done which include- 15% overdrive supercharger pulley, 2% overdrive aluminum crank pulley, Detroit Tuned bypass valve, DDM Intake, Borla non-s catback exhaust- This uses the same piping size as the stock S model with only one muffler and also has six(yes six!) less 90 bends than the stock exhaust. The car has a Methanol injection kit which I feel is a must for a supercharged car in our hot texas summers. This drops the intake temperature down to ambient or less and also increases the fuel octane to over 100. There is a 3 liter tank in the hatch of the car next to the battery. This lasts 1.5-2 tanks of fuel depending on how hard you drive. I will include 10 gallons of methanol with the sale of the car. Battery has been changed to an Odyssey PC680 which is 1/3 the weight of the original battery. The suspension has been upgraded with Koni Sport Yellow adjustable shocks front and rear, Mini Mania springs, Proflex poly front control arm bushings, Eibach front camber/caster plates, M2 strut tower reinforcement plates, rear adjustable control arm links. Wheels are 16" Konig Feathers with BF Goodrich Sport Comp 205/45/16 tires. Each tire wheel combo is 20lbs less than the stock 17" wheels with run flats. The wheel bolts have also been replaced with Wheel studs and nuts. Front brakes have been upgraded to the John Cooper works calipers and larger rotors with stainless braided lines and Akebono cermaic brake pads. Interior is basically stock except for a bluetooth link to stream audio through the stock radio and an Ian Cull auto up module. The module adds auto up and down to both windows along with the ability to set the traction control to be off by default and for the fog lights to come on every time the headlights are on(normally you have to switch them on every time). Shifter is a B&M short shifter with a Delrin knob. The stock metal knob burned my hand in the summer. Lastly I added a trailer hitch which is hidden inside the rear bumper. There is a little cover you pop off to access the hitch. I used this to carry my bike rack only and never towed anything with the car.

The car is in overall very good shape. It does have some minor dings and scratches which are normal for a car of this age. There is one small dent in the rear hatch(bottom right) which was there when I bought the car along with two scrapes on the top of the bumper( I put touch up paint on these) that happened at the same time. the previous owner told me some one had backed into it downtown. I have changed the oil every 4,000 miles with Royal Purple fully synthetic oil. I also run Royal Purple in the transmission. The supercharger belt was just changed a few weeks ago and the coolant and brake fluid(ATE Super Blue brake fluid was used) were flushed within the last six months.

Judge to approve settlement of Mini CVT lawsuits

Sun, 25 Aug 2013

BMW has agreed to settle a number of class-action lawsuits out of court. The suits stem from drivetrain issues on the 2001 to 2006 R50 Mini Cooper - in particular, its continuously variable transmission. The transmission was known to fail, often without warning on otherwise healthy and well-maintained vehicles. This wasn't the only major issue to afflict the original BMW-era Mini models.
According to legal site Topclassactions.com, the suits alleged that BMW knowingly hid the defects in the CVT from customers while informing dealers of the issue. The first suit was filed in 2011, while four additional suits have followed. Now, BMW has reportedly settled, offering to reimburse 1,200 owners that needed repairs within eight years or 150,000 miles of their purchase. Repair prices for the transmission range from $6,000 to $9,000.
Under the agreement, BMW will also offer up to $4,100 to members of the suit that had fixes performed at a third-party shop, while owners who sold their cars at a loss due to the issues are slated to receive up to $2,000. Finally, owners who are part of the suit will be warrantied for a further eight years and 150,000 miles.

Paul McCartney's Aston sells for $1.8M; Ringo Starr's old Mini goes to a Spice Girl

Thu, Dec 7 2017

The Bonhams Bond Street auction in London was the place to be for fans of both The Beatles and automobiles as two cars once owned by former members of the band were up for auction. The first was an Aston Martin DB5 owned by Paul McCartney, and the second was a Mini Cooper owned by Ringo Starr. Both went for substantial sums, and the Mini went to an interesting owner. The Aston brought the big bucks, or pounds, since it was a British auction. The final price with premium was barely over $1.8 million, which fell smack in the middle of Bonham's estimate. It's an impressive price on its own, but more so when compared with its sale back in 2012. Back then it was painted in the same blue it had originally, and it only sold for $495,000, making this new sale more than three times higher. View 22 Photos The Mini went for much less, at just under $137,000 with premium. But the car went to an interesting owner, Geri Horner, nee Hollowell, whom you may know better as Ginger Spice of the Spice Girls. The Mini itself is interesting, too. Each of The Beatles owned a classic Mini at some point, but Ringo Starr's was unique because the flip-down tailgate was converted to a modern-style lift-up hatch incorporating the rear window. Reportedly the reason was so Starr could easily fit his drum kit in the back. It also featured a custom grille, driving lights, hood vents, and soft sunroof among other things. It even appeared on " Top Gear" in 2001. And before we forget, McCartney's DB5 also has " Top Gear" history in that it was owned by former host, Chris Evans.
