Here's the story...

I really hate to sell this thing but my loss is your GAIN. I just had my 2nd child and really, I have no use for this car. I could keep it around for another 12 years and wait for my oldest daughter to get her license. But life is short. I mean, it's a very clean car. She has EXTREMELY low mileage and runs like a champ. I just need something bigger and I'd rather not dip too much into my savings if you know what I mean.

So I decided just to see what I could get for it. If it's what I want, I'll let her (Elenor)  go.

Whoever get's this car will be really REALLY happy. No joke.

I will say the ONLY thing or flaw that she has is a few rock chips and a small scratch in the bumper. Nothing major at all. Very minute for a 2004 car. 

The gloss is 100% the glass is 100%. The engine is ultra clean and runs like a kitten and catnip, plenty of meat on the new tires that I had put on about a year ago. The interior is flawless. Nobody ever sat in the back. Just my 6 year old girl maybe 3 times.

The suspension is solid. She rides and steers like a 125cc go-cart. CD player and AC is A-OK 100%. The exhaust is stock and sounds nice (was planning on getting a cat-back kit and install the supercharger at the same time. Plus get the ECU chip. That will totally transform this little machine to hold it's own with the big boys. Not that she isn't peppy as she sit's right now!

You'll get all the looks on the road with her custom painted inferno-red side view mirrors. She stands out from the crowd. She even gets the attention of owners of the new S model (which I don't care for. They got to bulky in my opinion). That's how clean she looks. 

She really looks like a new Mini S if you didn't know the difference in the model changes over the years.

Anyway, you're bidding on "one hell of a Mini S"  Check out the pictures!

Good luck and talk soon!

P.S. I'll be adding more pictures within a day! So come back and check them out!

I said " I was planning on getting a cat-back kit and install the supercharger at the same time. Plus get the ECU chip"


What I meant to say was "I planned to install the upgraded supercharger pully kit that usually gets you about 15-25 more BHP". I haven't had time to do it so I will include the new upgrade pully kit and belt with the sale.

David Brown's latest Remastered project shows the Mini's classy side

Wed, Jan 12 2022

England-based David Brown Automotive builds some of the most mesmerizing classic Mini models we've ever seen. Its latest creation is no exception: Commissioned by a client in Japan, it leaves behind the Mini's econobox roots and proudly highlights the car's upscale side. In a way, David Brown is to the Mini what Singer is to the Porsche 911. It keeps the original car's basic design and proportions but modifies nearly everything else. For this posh, England-inspired build, it applied a coat of paint called Fade to Black and installed 13-inch wire wheels, which were never available from the factory. There's also a hand-painted Union Jack flag on the roof. Look closely and you'll spot several other subtle changes, like LED exterior lighting, bullet-shaped door mirrors, fender flares, and smooth fenders (the originals have a seam). The resto-mod treatment continues inside with red leather upholstery, black inserts in the seats, a wood-rimmed Mona-Lita steering wheel, Smiths gauges, and a push-button ignition. David Brown also replaced the air vents and most of the switchgear, and added a modern sound system. The finishing touch is a pair of leather straps designed to carry an umbrella and attached to the passenger-side door panel. While the company has dabbled in performance, it doesn't sound like the customer who commissioned this Remastered asked for rally-ready speed. The standard engine that David Brown Automotive puts in its cars is a 1,275-cc four-cylinder that develops 71 horsepower and 88 lb-ft of torque in its standard state of tune. It's fuel-injected, and in this application it spins the front wheels via an automatic transmission. David Brown Automotive hasn't revealed how much this specific build cost. However, it previously noted that each Remastered takes about 1,000 hours of labor to complete, so it's reasonable to assume that it's priced accordingly — and likely far above anything Mini makes.

CES 2022 was huge for EVs | Autoblog Podcast #711

Fri, Jan 7 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. CES took place this week, and there were some nice electric surprises from automakers, especially General Motors. John has been driving the Ram 1500 Power Wagon, as well as what seems to be its polar opposite, the electric Mini Cooper SE. Greg talks about the differences between the Acura TLX A-Spec long-termer (which is back in the shop) and the Type S loaner that's filling in for it. John's also got some interesting thoughts on leather interiors. Finally, the editors reach into the mailbag and help a repeat customer decide on a suitable replacement for a 2008 Lexus GX 470 in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Next-gen Mini Hardtop spy shots show dramatic changes

Fri, Dec 10 2021

We've seen the next-generation Mini Hardtop a few times, but under significant amounts of vinyl camouflage. But apparently Mini got careless, and someone snagged photos of a completely undisguised prototype, which were shared by Twitter user Greg Kable. While the front end is a pretty predictable update, the rear end and interior are major departures. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The face will be familiar to anyone who has seen a current Mini. The grille is quite large and composed of a large contrasting frame and a body color filler in the middle, with a couple small openings at the top and bottom. It does appear to be a bit smaller overall compared to the current model, and with a thinner frame. The headlights are still round as ever, but appear a bit larger, and now they feature little lines at the top and bottom that almost look like cute eyelids. Interestingly, the hood no longer has holes cut out for the headlights, and the cut lines are higher up. The profile, as far as we can tell, is still typical Mini. The only real change there is the replacement of the pull handles with flush-fitting units. At the back is where the major exterior changes take place. The lozenge-shaped taillights of the past are gone in favor of angular trapezoidal units. They feature black-lined overlays, and they blend into the black trim piece that stretches across the hatch. The lights appear to be a part of the hatch, too, and will likely swing up with the hatch when opened. The rear fenders look wider than before relative to the greenhouse, giving this new Mini a lower, wider appearance. This particular prototype has an S badge in what looks like a yellow-green color, so we believe this may actually be an SE electric model. Moving to the inside, the new Mini holds on to some classic design cues, but reimagines them with modern technology and a minimalist theme. The dash is dominated by a huge, thin circular display, which evokes past round displays and gauge clusters from classic and more modern Minis. There's no gauge cluster in front of the driver, either, so the center screen will likely feature driving information in addition to other infotainment functions. The driver does at least get a head-up display, so there will still be the ability to have speed and other info directly in front of the driver.
