Green 2003 Mini Cooper on 2040-cars

Year:2003 Mileage:100260
Location:

Sebastian, Florida, United States

Sebastian, Florida, United States

2003 Mini Cooper classic 2 door.  British Racing Green color.

Only two owners! My parents purchased it new when the Mini first came out. They had it special ordered and then they gave it to me in 2004. It has been an excellent car; fun to drive; relatively low maintenance; and few mechanical break-downs given the mileage. The power window mechanisms have been replaced. The power steering pump has been replaced. All four (4) run-flat tires are in good condition.

It has all power windows and power moon-roof; factory Harmon-Kardon premium sound system; all four (4) factory floor mats; and two key FOBs with remote "air out" mode that automatically roll down the windows and open the moon roof. The full leather seats are in excellent condition for the age of the vehicle and it has a two mode transmission (automatic and manual "sport mode").

The paint is discolored on the passenger side (like bubbling under the clear coat) and appears to be fading a little more on the hatch. The headliner has come loose on the passenger side and the rear ceiling light cover is missing. Both windows are susceptible to some leakage at the top of the window near the seal with rain or if you take the car through an automated car wash.

The vehicle has only been in two minor accidents; both were years ago. Only cosmetic damage resulted and it was repaired after the accidents.  The check engine light came on recently. I had it checked by a mechanic and was told that a sensor unique to Minis needed to be replaced and that it could only be replaced at a Mini dealership (a long drive from me). I did not have it replaced because I knew that I was going to sell the car soon. The mechanic could not find anything else wrong with the vehicle.

The vehicle is sold "AS IS".  Cash purchase only.  Pick up only-located in Sebastian, FL.  No returns or refunds. Descriptions and information are provided in good faith but should not be taken as warranties of fitness or condition.

Please call my husband, Kevin at (772) 321-9465 for more information.

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

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.

BMW, Mini aim to sell million cars off new FWD platform

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Mini sold 301,526 cars in 2012; BMW sold 1.54 million of its own models. According to a piece in Autocar, analysts say the coming UKL1 platform that will form the skeleton of the third-generation Mini Cooper and coming front-wheel drive BMW 1 Series could be responsible for "more than 900,000 cars per year" all by itself.
That sale fire is fueled by the UKL1 wearing up to twenty-three bodies in total between the two brands, 11 for Mini and 12 for BMW, rendering hatchbacks, sedans, coupes, convertibles, wagons, crossovers and people-haulers from about 12.5 feet to 14.5 feet. In April the VP of Mini USA said we might find some current models don't make it to a next generation, but a graphic accompanying the Autocar story has them all there. If it's correct, then those 23 models will only base model lines and don't account for different engines and four-wheel-drive options for each model.
The big changes that would perhaps mean big sales for the Mini line are a five-door hatch with two smaller rear doors for children, the sedan talked about last year for Asian markets and an MPV perhaps wearing the "Traveler" name that could send the Countryman in a more SUV-like direction.
