 Up for grabs is a 1976 Mini Cooper Classic that was updated/rebuilt a few years ago by a previous owner with all the mechanical and interior items from a late 1990's low mileage Japanese spec Mini Cooper Classic with A/C.  The odometer reading is correct for the mileage on the engine and running gear from the Japanese donor car.  Items that I have taken care since owning the car:
-New front and rear window seals
-Dash recovered
-New Radio
-Driver's seat rail extensions---I am 6' tall and have no problem driving the car for long distances.
-Rebuilt the heater with new heater radiator and updated fan.
-Rebuilt alternator
-Recent Tune up including new spark plugs, wires, belt and air filter
-Coolant system flushed
-New rubber floor mats

Only item that was not fully hooked up during the rebuild of the car by the previous owner was the Air Bag, but I was told everything is in place if someone was interested in having it completed.  Only flaws in the paint are rock chips on the rear wheel arches on both sides, otherwise the paint looks great including the racing strips.  The car gets great gas mileage in the mid 30's and is a blast to drive.  Several spare items come with the car including oil filters, air filter, fuel filter and a few hard to find electrical items for the fuel injected engine.I would feel comfortable driving this car anywhere and if the future owner wishes to fly into to drive the car home the closest Airport is in Redmond Oregon and I would be happy to pick you up.  Car has a free and clear title in my name and the only reason I am selling this car is that I have found another toy that needs its garage space.  Let me know if there are any questions or additional photos needed.  Also I will give the winning bidder the option to purchase the correct service computer for the car for $500.00.  Happy Bidding!

Mini John Cooper Works EV spy photos reveal a sporty body

Thu, Aug 10 2023

The fully-electric Mini Hardtops are just around the corner, and we've seen the Cooper SE pretty much revealed. But that won't be the most potent of the electric Minis. These spy shots show that there's an electric John Cooper Works model following right behind. It features a number of extra-sporty add-ons and will surely boast more power. Confirming this John Cooper Works prototype's electric nature is the almost completely filled-in grille and lack of any tailpipe. The open lower section in the grille does look a tad larger, and it incorporates parts of the aggressive front spoiler, with those pieces vertically bisecting it. There's still no hood scoop, since there's no reason for it. The front spoiler is matched by new side skirts with little winglets toward the rear. And at the back, there's a prominent rear spoiler with small fins along the top. The rear bumper has been redesigned with boxier edges and a more aggressive diffuser. This prototype is also wearing a set of split five-spoke wheels. While we've had a number of reports about specs on the two initial Mini EV Hardtops, the JCW is more of a mystery. It's safe to assume there's more power than the Mini Cooper SE's reported 215 horsepower. Our spy photographer suggested 250, and that seems reasonable as a significant increase over the SE and a boost over the 228 of the current gas-powered JCW. Suspension and possibly brake upgrades are also on the menu. It will probably get the larger 54-kWh battery that's expected, but as our photographer notes, the extra power and wider, stickier tires will probably keep it from hitting the same range as other Minis with the same pack. The aero add-ons may also create more drag, further hurting overall range. The base and SE versions of the electric Mini Hardtop should be revealed in the next few months, since it's pretty much been revealed sans specifications. The John Cooper Works will probably follow in about a year, maybe two, after to allow for some final development work and to keep the buzz going. It will also probably be the most expensive, but most exciting, version of the electric hardtop. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Mini could go even bigger with next Countryman

Mon, 25 Nov 2013

We recently reported that the new family of Minis could balloon from eight models to ten or more, but it's not only the model line that's expected to grow: so too could the largest model itself. That, of course, would be the Countryman, which is already bigger than anything else ever to wear the Mini badge. But if you think the current Countryman is already big enough, the latest reports suggest that it could get even bigger. Apparently parent company BMW feels a larger Mini crossover would better compete with more mainstream models in the marketplace.
The Countryman, however, will only be one of the new variants to spin off of the new third-generation Mini. Expect the new Hardtop hatchback introduced in LA to be followed by a new Cabriolet, Roadster, and Paceman. A five-door version of the base hatchback will also join in addition to the new Clubman, which is tipped to get a split tailgate instead of the single hinged aperture on the current model. The jury's still out on the Mini Coupe, which has largely failed to impress, while a convertible crossover could be back in the mix along with the rumored plug-in hybrid version.

Mini locks out the podium at Dakar Rally

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Motor racing is often overcome by dominant forces. In Formula One these days, it's all about Red Bull. Le Mans is absolutely dominated by Audi. Citroën devastated the World Rally Championship for years. And the Dakar Rally is no exception to that particular rule, either.
The Mitsubishi Pajero won the event seven years in a row and many times before that. Then Volkswagen took the lead, winning three years running with competition-spec Touaregs once the rally shifted from North Africa to South America in 2009. But these days it's Mini that dominates.
The Mini All4 Racing team won in 2012, again in 2013 and has just won it again for 2014. Not only did it win again, but it took a devastating 1-2-3 finish to lock out the podium. Over the course of 13 days, Minis won 11 out of 13 of the total stages that make up the grueling rally, at the end of which Nasser Al-Attiyah crossed the line in third, Stéphane Peterhansel finished second, and just five minutes ahead of him, Nani Roma crossed the finish line in Valparaíso in first place. (Of course it didn't hurt that there were no fewer than 11 Minis entered in this year's rally, but still.)
