Wow!  Absolutely like new and in the wrapper.  This pampered fair weather car is my second Mini Convertible and is in mint way above average condition having covered just over 12,000 one owner miles in the Hamptons.  Best of all, it comes with FREE FACTORY MAINTENANCE through October of of this year, and enjoys a FULL BUMPER TO BUMPER FACTORY WARRANTY through October of 2014.  I have fallen in love with an old Mercedes so I am reluctantly letting her go.  Wife says I am crazy but believe me, this is not a first for that observation.  Local Southampton Mini dealer agrees this one is as nice as they come.  I am a car guy who over indulges all his cars.  Good for you.  This is an absolute no brainer decision even over the internet.  You get a near new car with free maintenance and a full transferable warranty.  Come to the Hamptons and drive home in pure joy. NOTE:  I had the option of buying an "S" model and drove both back to back.  What the dealers don't tell you is there is a "SPORT" setting button on the center console that makes this just as peppy off the line so I didn't think it was worth spending another $3,000.  That's a personal decision but I have absolutely no complaints about performance even with an automatic.  It gets around 31 MPG putting around the Hamptons.  Don't know about highway mileage because this car has never been on a real highway.  This car has the Winter Cold Weather package with heated seats, heated and powered mirrors.  In warm weather climates this is still a nice bonus because the heated seats are great on cool top down evenings.  The only other major option is fog lights. I'm sure they work but I have never turned them on.  Buy with complete confidence.  No lemon here, it's full records are available and will stand in testimony to the quality of this fine car.  It had the windshield replaced a year ago (free of course) from a structure crack (common I am told) and an interior roof panel came loose so they put a new one in.  That and a few oil and windshield wiper replacements are pretty much it.  Plenty of tread left on the original tires.  Zero road rash on the alloy wheels and a like new convertible top round out the package.  Click Buy It Now before I come to my senses.  I have a Mini Car Cover I will throw in ($225 new) that I used all the time because I am just that anal.  Ask any questions.  Thanks for your interest.

Mini JCW Paceman vs. BMW M135i in family faceoff

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Over the last year, we've had the chance to drive two of the most exciting hatchbacks in the BMW family - the BMW M135i and the Mini Paceman John Cooper Works - but Autocar has managed to get the two corporate cousins together for a head-to-head comparison. Just like our initial impressions of the Paceman JCW, Autocar has little to complain about this new 215-horsepower hatchback... until it begins to factor in the faster, better-mannered and similarly priced M135i.
Despite laying down an extra 100 hp and delivering a 0-60 time that is almost two seconds quicker, the M135i carries the same price tag of 29,535 pounds in the UK; US pricing for the Paceman starts at $36,200, while it still isn't even clear if the US will be getting the M135i. Even more surprising is the fact that the Paceman falls short of the M135i in regards to rear seat and cargo volume, and just barely squeaks out a win in the fuel economy department. Scroll down to watch the BMW versus Mini hot hatch battle.

New Zealand SPCA teaches rescue dogs how to drive a Mini

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

No, this isn't an April Fool's joke or some sort of wacky car commercial. It's the SPCA Auckland (located in New Zealand) coming up with an innovative way of proving that it's possible to teach a rescue animal new tricks. Monty, Porter and Ginny are all dogs rescued by the SPCA Auckland, and each was taught the ability to drive a Mini Countryman around a track.
After being strapped into the driver's seat, the dogs are able to use their paws to start the car, steer it and work the gas and brake, which have been modified similar to a car setup for a special-needs driver. These dogs aren't being trained to drive on the street as any sort of driving-eye dogs, rather it is just a demonstration of how smart and docile rescue dogs can be regardless of how they ended up there. Porter was found wandering the streets, Ginny was abused by her owners and seized by the SPCA and Monty was surrendered by his owners to the rescue. Ironically, Porter and Ginny initially got carsick during the exercises, but have since gotten over this.
Think it's a joke? Scroll down to watch four videos showing the dogs in action and another to see what mods were made to get the Mini ready for canine duty. In the first video, you can also see that Porter does a better parking job than most humans!

New Mini Cooper only just now being delivered due to EPA certification

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

The Mini brand and its products have typically been a runaway success for BMW, but sales of the retro hatchback dropped a drastic 20.5 percent last month, and have been doing such pretty much all year.
The reason, according to Jalopnik, is that the new model has been held up due to EPA certification. Mini told our compatriots, "Sales have dropped because our supply has been so limited. MY 2015 Mini Hardtops have also not been able to go on sale pending the final results of federal fuel economy certification."
Mini goes on to clarify that "as of October 1st, three out of the four 2015 Mini Hardtop 2 door models, the Cooper with manual transmission, the Cooper with automatic transmission, and the Cooper S with manual transmission, have been released for retail sales and deliveries."
