The car has been meticulously maintained. Body and paint are in excellent condition, with no prior accidents. My wife was hit by some debris on the freeway, which dented the hood and front air dam. Both were replaced under insurance claim, and I had the shop clean up all dents and door dings, and spray the doors and 1/4 panels. Paint is OE quality, bonnet stripes are matte black and painted on. Looks impeccable, this car turns heads everywhere it goes.

Major service and inspection performed by Kensington Motor Car of Las Vegas
All fluids and filters replaced, spark plugs, all systems checked and adjusted. No mechanical problems found, you are welcome to contact them to verify. They have a MINI technician that used to work at the dealership where I bought it. Mark has performed the bulk of the service.
I have seen several MINIs from 2006 with less miles for sale here on eBay. I realize mileage is always a consideration, but keep in mind that a car with 50k miles will soon need many of the repairs listed above. The gaskets hoses, water pump and control arm bushings are fairly universal repair items for the 2002-2006 MINIs. Although my car has higher mileage, these repairs have been completed, saving you money.
I've spent $5000 in the last year or so completing these repairs, so figure you're saving about that much over a lower mileage MINI.
Tires are Continental extreme contact DWS in 215/45, with more than 80% tread life, mounted on brand-new 17" Konig feather ultra-light performance wheels in powder black.
Also available are the factory JCW 18" alloy wheels, but they need refinishing. All four have curb rash and need tires. I'm willing to sell the car with only the JCW rims, keep the Konigs and contis, and discount $900 from final auction price.
As you can see from the photos, the drivers rocker panel was damaged when I installed the springs. I was quoted $250 to resurface and paint it. There is also a scratch near the drivers door, caused by the clip of my stupid pocket knife. The factory appliqu'e on the rear spoiler is peeling a bit, and I was quoted $150 to remove it and spray with matte black to match the bonnet stripes.

Please keep in mind the car will need ~$500 of body and paint work to look perfect.
Interior is excellent, but there is some minor wear in the drivers seat caused by that same stupid knife clip. Barely noticeable, but I'm giving you all the details in the interest of full disclosure. We don't smoke and this car has never had a cigarette inside her.
I love this car to death, but we want a new GP MINI. So we need to sell her to buy that. Anyone looking for a head-turner that has the creature comforts of a daily-driver but is auto cross and track ready, has found it all in this incredibly fun-to-drive little package.
The car is best experienced in person, and I will be happy to arrange a showing.

2015 Mini Cooper snapped uncovered on the road
Mon, 30 Sep 2013The third generation of reborn Mini is nearly upon us. Just look at the trail of breadcrumbs the Anglo-Saxon automaker has been leaving us.
First we saw the upcoming new Mini Cooper, spied from above at a photo shoot, which Mini was quick to point out was not its best angle. Then BMW's retro-hatch division showcased the Mini Vision concept, and followed up just yesterday with details of the new engines and chassis that will underpin the latest model. And now we have the clearest batch of spy shots we've seen yet.
Not only were these shots taken from a better angle, but also show the new Mini in the more tempting Cooper S trim - complete with hood scoop, split-spoke alloys, roof spoiler and twin central exhaust tips.
Mini Countryman Boardwalk limited edition strolls into the 2021 lineup
Wed, Dec 9 2020Mini released several limited- and special-edition variants of the Hardtop for the 2021 model year, but it's not forgetting about the bigger Countryman. It announced a new version of the crossover named Boardwalk that stands out with an eye-catching shade of blue borrowed from its smaller sibling, among other visual tweaks. If the Boardwalk looks familiar, it's because the metallic Deep Laguna blue was inaugurated by the Convertible Sidewalk edition (pictured in the gallery) introduced for the 2020 model year and sold globally in limited numbers. It was added to the Countryman lineup by popular demand, according to the BMW-owned firm, and its leap from the Sidewalk to the Boardwalk was accompanied by black paint on the roof and on the door mirrors. Mini pointed out its stylists drew inspiration from a boardwalk's wooden planks to design the emblems they put on both fenders. Edition-specific logos also appear on the roof, on the sill plates, and on the dashboard. Globally, the edition can be paired with the Cooper and the Cooper S. Mini confirmed to Autoblog that the Boardwalk will be sold in the United States, but it hasn't revealed how many examples it will send here, or how much the model will cost. We've asked, and we'll update this story if we learn more. Updated for the 2021 model year, the Countryman won't remain Mini's only crossover for much longer. Executives announced plans to realign the model range during the 2020s by putting a bigger emphasis on crossovers. One of the two upcoming high-riding cars will be a Countryman-sized electric models, while the other will arrive as a bigger people-mover that will allegedly ride on BMW's modular CLAR platform.

Mini confirms first plug-in hybrid and it looks like it's based on the Countryman
Mon, Oct 17 2016Mini confirmed Sunday it's developing its first plug-in hybrid model, apparently based on the Countryman. The hybrid will utilize an electric motor that works with a combustion engine, expected to be a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder unit. Though the actual name wasn't specified, Mini said the vehicle will have two driving modes. With Auto eDrive, it can reach speeds of up to 50 miles per hour. Switching into Max eDrive increases top speed to approximately 77 miles per hour. The electric motor sends all of its power to the rear wheels, while the combustion engine powers the front wheels. The engine only kicks on in certain situations. Mashing the throttle brings the engine to life, as does switching the car into "Save Battery" mode, which allows the engine to charge the hybrid's battery through a generator while powering the vehicle. The engine also comes on if the vehicle's all-wheel-drive-system senses a loss in traction. Inside, the changes include a yellow start/stop button (instead of red) and a power display in place of the traditional tachometer. Mini's previous electrification efforts included the Mini E, which had a range under 100 miles and was available for leasing in 2009. Expect the plug-in hybrid to debut in 2019.
