You are looking at a 2010 Mini Cooper Hardtop with the remainder of a Mini Maintenance Program Upgrade Agreement good for 72 months (April 2016) or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first, and transferrable to the new owner, a copy included with the sale. It has been a fun ride, never abused, always enjoyed, always garaged. It has a John Cooper Works tuning kit installed at the factory, including a free flow intake and exhaust, with reprogramming giving a total horsepower of 190, up from stock of 172. There are no dents or scratches. All scheduled maintenance has been done at Crown Mini of Richmond under the maintenance agreement, and all records come with the vehicle, including the original shipping updates showing when it left the factory in Southampton, England and the shipping vessel progress to the States. Last month the front brake pads and rotors were replaced and oil changed, all under warranty. The battery was replaced in February. The Carfax is clean. This Mini has all options, including: leather lounge carbon black seats with white piping (rare), Convenience Package (garage-door opener, keyless entry, auto-dimming rear view mirror, intermittent wipers with rain sensor, auto headlights, and bluetooth with a USB port), Cold Weather Package (power folding, heated mirrors, headlight washer jets, and heated seats), Premium Package (dual pane panoramic sunroof, auto climate control, and Harmon/Kardon premium sound with 10 speakers- sounds great!), Sport Package (17"alloy spoke wheels, xenon headlights, dynamic traction control, and white turn signals), chrome line interior, bonnet stripes, and center armrest. Added later were a fumed amboyna burl wooden shift knob (original saved), carbon fiber interior door handles, mud flaps, NM hi-flow intake and discharge turbo pipes, and an NM front shock tower stabilizer. A SiriusXM radio mount is installed and will accomodate an XpressRCi radio. The original tires were replaced with Continental Extreme Contact non run-flat tires 14,000 miles ago and have been rotated to maximize tread life. Paint seal renewal has been applied twice since purchase. In short, I am pleased to offer this car to a qualified buyer who will take care of it as I have, and you have the confidence of worry-free ownership under the remainder of the maintenance agreement.

A deposit of $1000.00 must be made to Paypal within 24 hours of the auction close. Out-of-state payment balance must be wired to my bank within 72 business hours at which time a clean title will be sent or produced to the buyer. In-state payment may be in the form of cash or a cashiers check which must clear before title release. All taxes, licensing and shipping is the responsibility of the buyer in the state of residence. I will work with you to help with delivery. Of course, you are protected by the Ebay Buyer Protection Plan.

Mini celebrates 60 years of Cooper with Anniversary Edition Hatch

Mon, Jul 19 2021

Sir Alec Issigonis never seriously envisioned the original Mini as a performance car. It was a cheap and cheerful econobox developed as an alternative to the bubble cars that were wildly popular in post-WWII England. Race car engineer John Cooper played a significant role in revealing the Mini's sporty side, and the BMW-owned firm is celebrating the collaboration's 60th anniversary with a limited-edition variant of the Hatch that will be sold globally. Aptly named Anniversary Edition, the commemorative hatchback is available in British Racing Green, Midnight Black or Rebel Green (depending on the version). Regardless of the chosen paint color, the light bezels, the door mirror caps, the door handles and the roof are painted white, while most of the other exterior trim pieces are black. The number "74" appears on the hood and on the doors; it was chosen as a reference to the original Mini, which wore the same number when it earned its first win in a major race. Red accents add a finishing touch to the look. Open the door, and you'll spot edition-specific door sill plates with a Cooper logo. The same design appears on the three-spoke steering wheel, and there's a red ring on the passenger side of the dashboard that's a tribute to the original John Cooper logo. The signatures of John, Mike and Charlie Cooper appear next to the instrument cluster. Mini is not making any major mechanical changes to the Anniversary Edition. The package can be ordered with the standard Cooper, the hotter Cooper S or the spicy John Cooper Works model. In its most powerful configuration, the Hatch offers a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that develops 228 horsepower. For context, the original Mini Cooper was powered by a 1.0-liter four-cylinder tuned to develop about 55 horsepower. It could reach a top speed of around 80 mph, and it gained disc brakes (the standard Mini initially settled for drums on both axles). Only 740 units of the Anniversary Edition Hatch will be built globally. Pricing information hasn't been announced. And, while we know the model is America-bound, there's no word yet on how many will be sent to our shores. We've reached out to the brand, and we'll update this story if we learn more. Cooper's pre-Cooper models Mini launched its first Cooper-tuned model in September 1961, but the collaboration started earlier.

2013 Mini John Cooper Works

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

Location, Location, Location
Back in February, Mini invited me to come try out its brand-new Paceman coupe-crossover-hatchback thing in Puerto Rico, and not long after, I spit out a Quick Spin detailing my impressions of the little-big two-door. But here's what I didn't tell you: Mini also let me loose on those fine, curvaceous, tropical roads in its hottest hatch, the John Cooper Works GP. And while that behind-the-wheel gigglefest would have no doubt made for a story laden with positive notes and warm regards, the truth is, I only drove it for 15 minutes, so I couldn't in good conscience offer much of a story to you. (European Editor Matt Davis also got a short stint behind the wheel of the GP late last year.)
So for the sake of due diligence, I buckled down and spent a full eight days with the JCW GP back home in Detroit, just as springtime was starting to stick here in southeast Michigan. But after my time with the Mini, I was wishing that I could have just been left with my GP memories from Puerto Rico, where I was pushing the little hotbox hard around smooth corners and flexing every one of its muscles to eke out the full JCW GP experience in only a short timeframe.

BMW profit of $2.7B is down as automaker invests to keep luxury lead

Fri, 02 Aug 2013

Despite selling 6.6-percent more vehicles - a record by volume - and posting higher revenues in the second quarter of 2013, BMW Group's profit of 2.07 million euros ($2.75 billion) is down 8.8 percent from last year. Investments in new technology (e.g. the new i3) and personnel, in addition to a competitive market, are to blame, BMW states. But the automaker remains committed to its fiscal targets for 2013, which, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, Norbert Reithofer, says will be "on a similar scale to 2012."
The BMW brand's sales performance in the first half of the year, which increased by 7.7 percent to 804,258 vehicles delivered, was good enough for it to maintain its lead in the luxury market, narrowly beating Audi, which delivered 780,510 vehicles, Automotive News reports. Mercedes-Benz delivered 694,433 vehicles to cement third place.
