Description
Sadly the time has come to sell my Mini, I couldn't use it as a daily so got something else, and now it's just sat there not being driven so time for someone else to enjoy it. I've had it for 8 years, and spent plenty on it in that time...
Available for viewing…
Sadly the time has come to sell my Mini, I couldn’t use it as a daily so got something else, and now it’s just sat there not being driven so time for someone else to enjoy it. I’ve had it for 8 years, and spent plenty on it in that time…
Available for viewing in Watton, looking for £2,250 but would be open to sensible offers.
Car has done about 96,000 miles, I can get an exact number if anyone is interested. Within my ownership it has been serviced annually by myself (dad is a mechanic), had a new clutch in 2021 and has the following mods:
– Sparco Assetto Gara Alloys
– Atomspeed scoop (could do with a repaint)
– M7 strut brace
– Canton PAS tank
– Davefab header tank
– 15% reduced supercharger pulley
– Cabrio braces
– Rear brace
– 8.5mm Mr Retro Leads
– GRS intercooler
– R53OC airbox mod (cone filter)
– Michael Ertel airbox mod (cold air feed)
– R56 front brakes and braided hoses, and replaced the rear calipers at the same time
– Silver line lower RCAs
– HSD Dualtech coilovers
– 5mm spacers
– Front wishbone polybushed
– RPM diverter
– Toyosport catback exhaust
– Led sweep sidelights, painted front headlights and LED read lights
– Aftermarket handbrake handle, gaiters and Raceseng gear knob
– Uprated rear speakers
– Other cosmetic bits
It has some rust around the rear light and a little on the bootlid, but the rest of the car is solid and would make for a fun weekend toy, or daily for someone braver than me!
