2002 Mini Cooper With 88,900 Original Miles on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
For sale is a metallic green 2002 Mini Cooper with beige heated leather seats in excellent shape. The car has cruise control, great AC, and tinted windows. It comes with the original window sticker and owner's manual. It has a clean carfax and has had frequent oil changes using only Mobil 1 synthetic oil. No accidents plus it has original paint and gets great gas mileage. In the past two years the car has gotten: • Koni adjustable shocks • New H&R springs • Adjustable rear camber links • Hotchkiss rear sway bar Along with the thousands of dollars in suspension improvements the car has also received in the last two years: • New radiator and thermostat • New Bosch battery • New front and rear brakes (pads and rotors) • New Hankook tires (at 66,000 miles) • New wiper blades front and rear The car drives and shifts gears very well but the transmission has gotten a little noisier in the last few months. My mechanic said it was probably due to wear of the input shaft bearing and eventually would need to be replaced. I changed the gear oil to Redline synthetic and the car remains very drivable as is (the clutch is fine). Also the driver's side electric mirror doesn't work that well (the glass has a limited range of motion) and the car has a couple of dings and dents but they are hard to photograph (I think a paintless dent removal guy could remove them quite easily). None of these issues detract from the way the Mini performs and never bothered me but I wanted to disclose everything I know about the car. My wife and I recently inherited another car and we don't need three so the Mini goes because it's the least used. It's a great looking vehicle and is such a blast to drive because it handles so amazingly well! Please ask any questions before bidding. Thanks!

Mini lineup could expand to include up to 10 models, still no hope for Rocketman
Tue, 12 Feb 2013During an event in Ponce, Puerto Rico last week where Mini introduced members of the media to the 2013 Paceman and John Cooper Works GP, product planners discussed that the brand's lineup could expand to eventually include up to 10 bodystyles. Currently, the Mini range consists of seven models: the Hardtop, Clubman, Convertible, Countryman, Coupe, Roadster and Paceman.
Speaking to members of the media, David Duncan, Mini USA sales manager, said that these new models could fall into a range of niches - "any segment that makes sense for a small car." No specific vehicle classes were discussed, but Duncan stated that the possibilities are endless, "as long as we're the smallest player in any segment."
Well, nearly endless. We've been hoping that Mini would re-think its decision to nix plans to create a vehicle smaller than the Hardtop - a notion previewed by the excellent Rocketman concept (shown above) from the 2011 Geneva Motor Show - but the automaker once again stated that this is absolutely off the table. In order to create a vehicle of the Rocketman's size, a completely new platform would have to be engineered (that's expensive), and while Mini has looked into acquiring existing architecture from another brand, parent company BMW has reportedly put the kibosh on such an act. If a Rocketman is ever to be born, BMW/Mini will do it on its own, and right now, that simply isn't in the cards.
Guerlain Chicherit going for world record for longest car jump
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Does the name Guerlain Chicherit ring any bells? It definitely should if you're into competitive skiing, as he was crowned world champion in off-trail freeriding four times. But he's also a rally driver, winning the FIA Cross Country Rally World Cup in 2009 and even a stage of the Dakar Rally the following year. What really set him apart, though, was when he back-flipped a Mini Countryman rally car to set a world record last year. And now he's after another.
This time he's going after the world record for the longest ramp jump in a car. The record currently belongs to Tanner Foust at 332 feet, but Chicherit plans to break it by a good thirty more with a targeted distance of 360 feet.
He'll be using the Mini once again, sponsored by Monster Energy and Toyo Tires, and specially modified for the endeavor which he plans to undertake this Sunday under the auspices of Guinness World Record officials. We'll be watching to see how it all goes down.
28 "flexible ladies" cram into a Mini Cooper [w/video]
Sat, 17 Nov 2012The Mini Cooper is now confirmed as a great car with which to pick up chicks-up to 28 of them at a time, to be specific. That's the number of limber ladies you can fit in a Mini, as proven earlier this week in London.
The flexible females used every available space in the car, including the footwells and dashboard, to set the Guinness World Record for the most people inside a 2012 Mini. They beat their own previous record of 27, set last year.
Organizer Dani Maynard said before the attempt that the girls had undergone extra training and stretching since last year's record-breaking stunt. "While we have not quite been able to fit any of the girls into the Mini's glove box, there is a surprising amount of space to utilise," she told UK news site Metro.
