Thank you for considering my 2012 John Cooper Works MINI Coupe, the top of the line 208 HP coupe with a factory-modified turbocharged engine, JCW suspension, larger JCW wheels and tires, JCW four-wheel drilled Brembo brakes, JCW dual exhaust, JCW Sport and Performance and Cold Weather Packages, JCW badging and much, much more. Please do not compare my little go cart with the basic non-turbo Cooper coupe (168 HP/15 inch wheels) or the (188 HP/16 inch wheels) Cooper S coupe. Do not confuse this vehicle with a MINI coupe that offers the John Cooper Works Aero Package but not the stuff that really matters. I adore this car; it is as fast as the BMW M Roadster I owned a few years back, but the corners are where this coupe truly shines. MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension combine with anti-roll bars to give the MINI Coupe go-kart like handling. Silver White Metallic Paint with red racing stripes down the center, red top, 17-inch black wheels and Continental tires adorn this unique John Cooper Works coupe, and everything I just mentioned is in excellent (if not showroom) condition. No dents, dings, scratches or road rash...period. Every forward-facing body part is protected by Clear Bra, and I will never own another car that isn't. It has anti-lock brakes and 4-wheel drilled disc brakes, Dynamic Stability Control and every available performance and safety feature available from MINI except navigation. On the very rare occasions I use nav, I use the app on my phone. The Speed-sensitive electronic power steering is amplified in the Sport mode, as is the throttle response, so I drive almost exclusively in that mode...unless I am road-tripping and getting 38-39 miles per gallon at 65 miles per hour! This is the most unique, fun and best-engineered sports car I have ever owned. Better than my 2006 Honda S2000, my 2005 Nissan 350Z, my 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera, my 2002 BMW M Roadster, my 2006 BMW M Roadster or my original (first one sold in Utah) 2002 MINI Cooper S. This rare coupe has a little less that 25k miles and will enjoy free Mini Service through May of 2015 and full factory bumper-to-bumper warranty through May of 2016. I have included an exhaustive list of features and options below, but feel free to call me with any questions or comments. There are no/zero surprises with this car, so bid with confidence. Under some circumstances, I may be able to deliver the car to you. In response to a couple of questions I received about the VIN check showing 3 previous owners, please disregard that information. The VIN check is counting the dealership where I bought the car as the second owner, which can't be true since they never titled the coupe while it was in their possession and only put about 20 miles on it while they were in possession of it. If the number of owners was correct, the score on this car would be 97 instead of 94. Sorry about the confusion, but I am the second owner. You would be the third owner and, when the car is titled, the number of certified owners would be correct. Be advised that I previously listed this vehicle on ebay, but that deal didn't work out. This is a new posting with a lower price. Thanks, Mike 801.891.1938 Vehicle Description (including every option)

David Brown Automotive remasters classic Mini at maxi price
Fri, Apr 7 2017Just days ago, we reported that the British small-scale maker of luxurious, Aston Martin inspired coupes, David Brown Automotive, was about to introduce a new, cheaper vehicle positioned under its exquisitely priced Speedback GT model. Since the Jaguar-based Speedback GT costs a significant $753,000, there's quite a bit of room underneath it to introduce a more modest means of transport, without cheapening out. Now, details of the car, dubbed "Project 2," have surfaced, and it's quite a surprise. What David Brown Automotive has come up with is a "remastered," rethought classic Mini. While the car looks just like a Mini at a passing glance, the body panels along with the chassis are new, and the car has been given a smoothening. All the body seams that were commonplace on the classic original have been rounded off, and the interior is a custom job complete with plentiful leather and Pioneer touchscreen. The new dashboard is a little closer to Japanese retro cars than either the classic Mini or the current, BMW-made equivalent. The drivetrain remains the trusted 1,275cc original along with a four-speed gearbox; both are reconditioned units instead of box-fresh ones, but they feature brand-new parts. There's 79 horsepower on offer, which is plenty of poke for a Mini. Each of the cars will take about 1,000 hours to make, by hand. The plan is to build 100-200 of these Mini re-creations per year, at David Brown's new facility in Silverstone, England. In two years, only 11 Speedbacks have been built, so the Mini should create a bit more buzz at the workshop. But the price? Starting from $62,000 at current rates, going all the way to $86,000 if you want one with all the trimmings. A lot for a Mini, but it's going to be special. Related Video:
Mini forgets to bring car to LA, shows Citysurfer concept scooter
Wed, 19 Nov 2014See that red thing? It's the Mini Citysurfer Concept. It is not, in case you were wondering, an automobile. Yet despite this apparent shortcoming, Mini has placed it on a plinth at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show.
The electric scooter weighs in at 40 pounds, can hit 15 miles per hour, cover 10 to 15 miles and can be folded up and charged in the trunk of a Mini Cooper (or any other vehicle with a 12-volt outlet and a roomy enough cargo area). According to the British marque, these qualities will give the scooter's owner the "spontaneous and convenient mobility even in those sections of an urban area not accessible to motorized vehicles."
It's not terribly difficult to see the appeal, as Mini explains it. With urban congestion becoming an increasingly serious problem - and some cities beginning to ban cars outright - the idea of an easy to charge and easy to stow runabout is extremely attractive. That's doubly true in the case of the Citysurfer, which is rather well equipped, as far as scooters go.
2023 Mini lineup gets smarter, more colorful
Fri, Feb 25 2022Mini has already announced the changes it's making to its line-up for the 2023 model year. The numerous special-edition models that it unveiled in February 2022 will be joined by new exterior colors, additional upholstery options and more available driving aids. While a completely new version of the Hardtop is on its way, the current-generation model will return for 2023 — it might be its final model year. Buyers who select the Signature or the Iconic version of the Cooper S or the John Cooper Works can order Zesty Yellow, which is an eye-catching color that was inaugurated by the 2022 Convertible. Multi-tone roof options are also available on the aforementioned variants. The electric SE's Signature and Iconic trim levels can be ordered in Island Blue, while Rooftop Gray leaves the palette. And, the Iconic trim level can be configured with Cloth Leatherette Black Pearl, Cloth Leatherette Black Pearl Light Checkered and Chesterfield Leather Malt Brown upholsteries. Mini notes that this is the first time it offers the Chesterfield Leather Malt Brown option on the battery-powered Hardtop. Park Assist and a head-up display join the list of features included in the Driver Assistance package, while adaptive cruise control is now a standalone option. In turn, this makes the Driver Assistance Package available regardless of whether buyers get a stick or an automatic, because adaptive cruise control isn't compatible with the manual transmission. And, yes: the stick shift is sticking around for 2023. Similar changes apply to the Clubman and the Countryman. The former is available with the same multi-tone roof option as the Hardtop and with the Driver Assistance Package regardless of transmission type, and the Driver Assistance package offered on both models gains Park Assist and a head-up display. Finally, the space-saver spare tire is exclusively offered as a standalone options on both bigger Mini models. Pricing for the 2023 model year stays relatively flat, which is a nice surprise. The only exceptions are the Cooper variants of the Hardtop, the Convertible and the Countryman, which cost $500 more than they did in 2022.
