2003 Mini Cooper - Solid Gold - Automatic - Low Miles - Loaded on 2040-cars
Northfield, New Jersey, United States
I am selling my 2003 MINI Cooper. I am the original (non-smoking) owner - I custom ordered it in 2003. It's in excellent condition (the rear seats have accommodated maybe 2 rear ends over the life of the vehicle) with only (approx.) 60,500 miles and it has been garage-housed. It's Solid Gold with Black Leatherette Seats and Anthracite Dash with Automatic CVT transmission. It has checkered mirror caps currently, though the MINI originally had black mirror caps which will be included in the sale. Also, the gas door is chrome which was only available on 'S' models at the time, but I switched it for the chrome. Please see the picture of the window sticker for full option details but it has the three main packages available at the time of order...Premium, Cold Weather, and Sport, which include... Panoramic sunroof Automatic climate control Heated seats Heated wiper jets and heated mirrors Front and rear fog lights (some Coopers have missing toggles in the row of toggles in the dash - this has all the toggles - no wondering "hmm, I wonder what option I COULD have gotten that would fill that unsightly empty spot") Dynamic Stability Control Sport seats Auto-dimming rear view mirror Rain sensing wipers Cruise control Add-on cup holder to accommodate larger cups and bottles Aux-input - there's an aux 1/8" audio input in the glove box if you prefer to directly connect audio Also, I have added a GROM Bluetooth module which allows for bluetooth phone use and streaming bluetooth audio through the built-in radio, as well as supplying a usb port for charging your phone, and an additional 1/8" aux input. Drives just fine and regularly serviced with no mechanical issues. Two keys, a valet key, and original manuals all included. If you are looking for a well-maintained, option-loaded preowned vehicle with low mileage, this is the car for you. Buy from a dealer and you have no idea what you're getting. I have a complete maintenance history available, and all service was done at my MINI dealership. Brake pads, rotors and sensors were replaced in January of 2012 at 47,400 miles Brake fluid was last done in Dec. of 2012 at 55,800 miles Oil service was last done in January of 2013 at 56,300 miles. Only synthetic oil has been used. |

Mini officially reveals Frozen Black Countryman and Paceman
Sat, 19 Oct 2013BMW has been offering Frozen editions of its cars for several years now highlighted by matte paint and very limited production, and now Mini is getting in on the game with Frozen Black versions of the Paceman and Countryman. Unlike our report from earlier in the week, these models will not wear the Batman-sounding Black Knight name, but instead, like the BMW models, will be dubbed Frozen Edition. That previous intel also had it that production of the Frozen Edition Minis would be limited to just 60 units. Now official, Mini has not confirmed how many - or few - of these limited edition models it would build.
The Frozen Black paint adds silicates to the lacquer finish creating a "matted impression," which sounds like it should be easier for owners to maintain and wash, although Mini still advises against waxing or polishing. This special paint will be offered on all S, Diesel and John Cooper Works versions of the Paceman and Countryman, though it's not clear as of this writing if any will be offered in the US. Mini's press release for the Frozen Black Paceman and Countryman is posted below.
Honda engines and giant killing in the classic Mini Cooper
Mon, 22 Jul 2013Electric Federal has taken a fresh look back at the enduring legacy of original Mini with a video interview with Heritage Garage's Graham Reid, one of the foremost experts on classic Minis. As Electric Federal points out, it's important to remember that the Mini did not start out as a performance car. It was built in response to the Suez Canal crisis of the mid-50s, which had a similar effect on British gas prices as OPEC did on American prices in the 1970s - rationing and rapid price jumps.
Through the years, Minis have grown from their budget roots to become seriously competent performance machines. As Reid says, a 150-horsepower Mini on the right track should have no problem outpacing a contemporary Porsche 911.
For some time now, classic Mini owners have been dropping Honda engines under the tiny hoods of their classics. With up to 250 horsepower pulling a car that tips the scales at barely 1,200 pounds, the upgraded Mini is "a real sleeper," Reid says. Interestingly, Reid doesn't mention another increasingly common swap in the Mini community - Suzuki Hayabusa-powered Coopers.
Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
