S Convertible 1.6l Automatic White Silver Metallic 24k Miles Pristine on 2040-cars
Olathe, Kansas, United States
My now ex-girlfriend had me arrange for a car dealer friend of mine to buy this car at a Mannheim auto auction in Portland, Oregon....then pay $1100 to transport it here for her, and then......well......that's part of the reason why she's now my ex-girlfriend. She stuck my dealer friend with the car....and I couldn't let him take the hit on it, so I'm driving it.
The upshot is, the car is actually pretty amazing. It rides well, has great power and handling....gets over 30mpg and has alot of cool features that my Chevy truck didn't have. I'm okay with putting it on a lot somewhere, but I think this car is really special, and was obviously well taken care of by the first owner. It is pristine. There are no dings or dents anywhere. I'm selling it what I have in it, which is the auction price plus the transportation to get it here. This is not a "rough" vehicle. This thing was obviously babied. It needs a similar new owner. Oh....one more thing...... this has a 3/36,000 mile warranty so warranty goes for quite awhile longer via any Mini dealer. That is very, very nice. |

Mini blows up over women applying makeup in cars
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Distracted driving is a very real problem. From drivers with phones dangling from their ears to those constantly adjusting the stereo or dealing with rowdy children in the back seat, anything that diverts attention away from the act of driving is a potential danger. And yes, that would indeed include applying makeup while driving.
Publicis, the advertising agency used by Mini in Mexico, came up with an inventive (or offensive, depending on your point of view) way of reminding female drivers "that there's a time and place for everything." And while we're not quite sure of the veracity of the statistics cited in the video below, or even the necessity of its production in general, perhaps we'll just take it as a reminder to pay attention while driving... no matter what else happens to be on our minds. Or faces, as it were.

BMW restores classic Mini as it revives production in Netherlands
Wed, 13 Nov 2013Mini will be kicking off production in the Netherlands, a country that hasn't built a Mini-badged machine since 1966. In honor of this event, BMW Group Classic, the team responsible for all the cars in the BMW Museum, as well as being a spare parts and restoration company in its own right, revived a classic 1959 Austin Seven. That particular car, number 983, was one of the first Minis to be built in the Netherlands.
The Netherlands' JJ Molenaar's Car Companies built 4,000 Austin Sevens and Morris Mini-Minors between 1959 and 1966, although we imagine Dutch Mini production will be much bigger when it starts up again in summer 2014. A five-person team from VDL Nedcar, the group handling production of new Minis, took to the job of restoring the diminutive British car from nose to tail.
The 34-horsepower engine and the transmission were both completely rebuilt, while the door panels were redone by hand. Help from the Mini community aided the VDL Nedcar team in finding authentic replicas or original parts where possible. All told, the new classic Mini is a striking example of what a good restoration can do to a car. The Seven was repainted in its original Farina Gray, adding to the car's sense of authenticity.
2014 Mini Cooper goes to the dogs
Tue, 17 Dec 2013We wouldn't buy a car to make a dog happy, but Mini's latest commercial, Bullheaded, would have you believe that dogs like the new 2014 Cooper as much as humans. Regardless of the commercial's target audience (Spike The Bulldog, or his owner?), it does show a couple new tidbits about the car, such as the new center dial touchscreen, ambient lighting and the nifty tinted pop-up display on top of the dashboard that reminds us of the head-up display on the new Mazda3.
Head below to watch Spike and his owner drive the Mini in Downtown Los Angeles (and the back lots of Paramount), and to get a behind-the-scenes look at how the commercial was made.
