2006 Mini Cooper S

This auction is for a 2006 Mini Cooper S. It is offered for sale by a private seller in Charleston, West Virginia. Please read the entire description and feel free to ask any specific questions you may have, I'm happy to take calls and emails at any time. This is a neighbor's vehicle, I have listed it on his behalf.  I've listed and sold several vehicles of mine over the years and always had a good experience.  I'm not a dealer but an enthusiast, it's the only reason I listed this one for him; it has a great story and is a unique piece.  I've started the bidding at a low price so everyone has a chance to get in and the reserve is extremely reasonable. Thanks for looking and enjoy the auction.

Every car has a story and this one is amazing!  This car was purchased from Hendrick MINI in Charlotte, NC on 12/01/2006.  The original window sticker is intact.  It was then driven to Charleston, WV where it has spent it's entire life in a garage being driven regularly a few miels at a time to keep the fluids and systems in operation. 

The owner had plans to retire and travel out west in his motor home and tow his Triumph TR6 for some fun driving experiences.  Upon further consideration; he decided that constantly repairing a Triumph whilst on the open road might not be a good idea.  So, he purchased the Mini; still British (somewhat) and still a fun drive.  Needless to say, the recession hit and all plans were off.  The motor home was sold and retirement put on hold.  The Mini was garaged next to the Triumph and thus is the story.

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION

EXTERIOR

This car's white paint is as glossy as it was the day it rolled off the assembly floor. As I stated earlier, the  vehicle has never even been in rain or snow. There is one rock chip on the front passenger side near the headlamp and two small scratches on the front bumper (see pictures) from something bumping it in the garage.  Other than that, it's perfect.  The glass is all original and in perfect condition. The wheels are in perfect shape.

INTERIOR

The black leather (yes, real leather, $1,700 option) interior is in perfect condition as well. The rear seats were never sat in and the passenger seat has carried a passenger maybe a total of 20 miles.  No scuffs or scratches here either. All controls are functional and operational. Everything is as it should be.

ENGINE / TRANSMISSION

The engine and transmission are in like new condition. The car starts, runs and drives as it should. With this kind of mileage you are not going to experience any problems here.

WHEELS / TIRES

The 17" wheels and tires are exactly as nice as they appear in the pictures.  The tires are original and obviously, only have 1,600 miles on them.

Get lost in Evo's sublime 2013 Car of the Year testing

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus

2015 Mini Hardtop 5-Door isn't for the country, man [w/video]

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

We've seen it in super high-res glory, and we can even build one on the automaker's website, but the Paris Motor Show marks the official coming out party for the new Mini Hardtop 4 Door (which is what it's called in the US, despite this Euro car having "5 Door" badging). It's a stretched version of the third-generation Mini Hardtop, but with an extra set of doors for rear seat passengers. Think of it as a more useful Clubman, but with a lower ride height and less rugged-ness than the Countryman. Got it? Good.
Engine options carry over from the normal Mini Hardtop range, with a 1.5-liter turbo-three and a 2.0-liter turbo-four offering 134 and 189 horsepower, respectively. The rest of the car is everything else you know and love from the Mini range, just with a more spacious rear bench. And as you'd expect, there's a nearly endless pallet of customization options.
The Hardtop 4 Door arrives at US dealerships just before the end of the year, commanding a roughly $1,000 premium over its three-door kin. Scope out our new live shots in the gallery above, and take in the extensive press blast, below.

Mini Clubman Bond Street inspired by London shopping

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Mini again plucks a London landmark as the appellation for a special edition, the Mini Clubman Bond Street joining the Mayfair and Camden, and Bayswater and Baker Street editions of the recent past. You'll recognize the formula of primary color and polished contrasting color, in this case its Midnight Black Metallic for the main event and Cool Champagne for the highlights like the roof, mirror caps and trim rings on the 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside it's Carbon Black leather set off by surfaces in Deep Champagne and the Chrome Line package.
It will premiere at the Geneva Motor Show in March before going into production for a limited run that same month. Four engines will be offered, with on-the-road prices ranging from 20,275 pounds ($31,961 US) in the UK for the 122-horsepower gas engine to 24,045 pounds ($37,918 US) for the 143-horsepower SD diesel version. A press release below will tell you all you wish to know.
