I am the only owner and it has never been in any accidents. The windshield was recently replaced. The last service was on December 6, 2012 when I had vacuum tubes replaced. In October 2012, I had the AC Condenser, Valve Cover Gasket, Belt Tensioner and Battery replaced.The four tires don't have too many miles on them and there is good tread remaining. I do not know of any current service issues. Here is information on the wear on the car: There is some bug damage to the black racing stripes. There are a few small dings and scratches as would be expected in a car with this type of mileage. The Driver's rear bumper has a crease and small dent immediately above the bumper. As this is the only significant damage, I have included a photo with the listing."

You are bidding on the greatest car I have ever owned.  This is a 2005 MINI Cooper S with the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit that I special ordered from Orlando MINI.  It is loaded with extras and accessories that were all added at the dealership and are official MINI products.  No aftermarket products have been installed.  The car is full of personality, the dark grey and black with red and grey interior custom leather convey the power of the vehicle while the racing stripes, driving lamps and JCW badges show the rich racing history of the MINI.  I'm pretty partial to the interior of this MINI, it's rugged yet refined and the focus is on that large, center mounted speedometer.  

It is dark silver with a black roof & mirror caps.  It includes the following:
  • 6-Speed Manual Transmission
  • John Cooper Works MINI Cooper S Tuning Kit (original price $5,360.00)
  • Premium Package (Multifuction Steering Wheel w/ Cruise, Dual-Pane Panoramic Sunroof, Automatic AC, On-Board Computer)
  • Anthracite Trim
  • Harman-Kardon Sound System
  • 16" Alloy Wheels with Run-Flat Tires (4 qty Pirelli Cinturatio P1195/55 R16)
  • CUSTOM Red & Grey Leather (much nicer than the factory leather!)
  • iPod Connector
  • Driving Lamps
  • Black Stripes
  • Simonized
  • JCW Badges and Door Sills
  • Glovebox Organizer
  • Tinted Windows
  • Floor mats
I also have both original keys, a complete set of manuals and the autographed JCW Certificate of Authenticity (suitable for framing!).  I also have all the service and maintenance receipts for your records.  Please note that one of the keys probably needs to have a battery replaced, it is not controlling the remote lock/unlock.

I am the only owner and have kept it very well maintained having it serviced only at the original dealer, Schlenkers (a highly reviewed local mechanic, for tires & brakes only) and British Performance in Melbourne, FL (a mechanic who specializes in MINIs).  I have only used synthetic oil and premium gasoline for the life of the vehicle.  I have always stored the car in the garage.  It has been recently detailed (washed, waxed, vacuumed, shampooed, conditioned) and looks excellent.

I have enjoyed owning this car and it has never left me stranded or had any major service issues.  Mechanics often comment on how well it has been cared for over the years.  I'm sad to sell it, but we are currently growing our family and it's time for a larger vehicle so we can transport car seats, strollers, bags, etc.  I hope it finds a good home and you enjoy it as much as I have.

I'm requesting a $500 Paypal deposit at the close of the auction (within 48 hours) and full payment via cleared funds within 7 days.  I will deliver the car within 60 miles of Rockledge, FL or you are welcome to come pick it up.  I am also happy to ship the car to you, but all shipping expenses will be your responsibility.  If you are in the area and would like to look at the car, please contact me to schedule a time.  Thanks for looking and my auction and please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Mini could go even bigger with next Countryman

Mon, 25 Nov 2013

We recently reported that the new family of Minis could balloon from eight models to ten or more, but it's not only the model line that's expected to grow: so too could the largest model itself. That, of course, would be the Countryman, which is already bigger than anything else ever to wear the Mini badge. But if you think the current Countryman is already big enough, the latest reports suggest that it could get even bigger. Apparently parent company BMW feels a larger Mini crossover would better compete with more mainstream models in the marketplace.
The Countryman, however, will only be one of the new variants to spin off of the new third-generation Mini. Expect the new Hardtop hatchback introduced in LA to be followed by a new Cabriolet, Roadster, and Paceman. A five-door version of the base hatchback will also join in addition to the new Clubman, which is tipped to get a split tailgate instead of the single hinged aperture on the current model. The jury's still out on the Mini Coupe, which has largely failed to impress, while a convertible crossover could be back in the mix along with the rumored plug-in hybrid version.

Volvo leads and Mini fails in JD Power's Tech Experience Index

Wed, Aug 19 2020

New cars are basically rolling computers. Everything from the engine to the infotainment runs on a series of ones and zeros, and a lot of that technology requires input from the driver. So it's no surprise that JD Power has a study designed specifically to discern which bits of tech drivers love and which bits they loathe. "New technology continues to be a primary factor in the vehicle purchase decision," says JD Power's Kristin Kolodge, executive director of driver interaction & human machine interface research. "However, it’s critical for automakers to offer features that owners find intuitive and reliable. The user experience plays a major role in whether an owner will use the technology on a regular basis or abandon it and feel like they wasted their money." The J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Tech Experience Index (TXI) Study found that Volvo owners are happiest with the technology packed inside their vehicles, followed by BMW and Cadillac, all brands that JD Power classifies as premium. The highest-rated mainstream brand is Hyundai, followed by Subaru and Kia. As was the case with the organization's Initial Quality and APEAL studies, Tesla's numbers aren't officially included because they are the only automaker that has not granted JD Power approval to contact its owners in states that require it. Tesla's projected score of 593 would have put it in second place, right behind Volvo's score of 617. The lowest-ranked brand in the TXI Study is Mini, with Porsche right behind. Diving a little bit deeper, JD Power's findings suggest that the technologies new car buyers care most about are related to helping them see their surroundings better. Camera systems, including rear-view mirror cameras and ground-view cameras, scored highest in five of the six satisfaction attributes measured in the study. The technology that owners could really do without? Gesture controls. Owners who answered JD Power's survey say they don't use gesture controls much at all after initially trying them, and they don't really care if their next vehicle has them. We have to wonder if those responses might be what kept BMW out of the top spot. The TXI Study also found that owners are split on automated driving helpers, like lane-keeping assist and automatic emergency braking. JD Power suggests that owners may need more training on those systems before they learn to trust them. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Production Mini Rocketman still in the cards, but not without a partner

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

There's not really any way around it - the new Mini Hardtop isn't all that mini. Considering its supposed to be the smallest model in the brand's lineup, this is hardly desirable. It's good news, then, that rumors are cropping up of a smaller Mini, based on the well-received Rocketman Concept that debuted in 2011 at the Geneva Motor Show.
The report, which comes from our friends at AutoGuide, claims that a production Rocketman is still on the radar of Mini's product chief, Pat McKenna, despite being officially on hold. As Mckenna explained it to AG, "the only way it would happen would be if it was a partnership with another company."
See, the problem is that Mini's current UKL platform, which underpins the new Hardtop along with the future Mini range, is too large for the tiny Rocketman. And since developing new platforms isn't as easy as popping down to the shops for a gallon of milk (nor as cheap), it makes the need for an ally to split the costs a necessity. Success, so far, has been limited.
