right hand drive mini cooper

clean, straight and super nice !

garage kept. runs and drives great !

registered in california with clear title.

history:

purchased on ebay 8 jan 2010

after reviewing the car we installed new suspension and brakes and a roll bar and drove the car.

a year later the engine started having problems so we purchased a new engine + transmission from mini mania and installed it.

since the new engine was installed the car has been driven very rarely. i have all of the receipts to show the amount of effort that has gone into this car.

in fact, i had never added up how much we had spent and i can tell you that it is much more than i had expected ( well over $20,000) and it was worth every penny for the fun we have had.

interior: (in great shape)

new carpet

roll bar

shifter boot / knob

wood dash

brakes + suspension:

rear sway bar (not installed)

braided steal brake lines

new brake pads

new brake master cylinder

minilite wheels (no spare tire)

tires in good shape

what needs to be done:

the rear sway bar needs to be installed

one the sway bar is installed i would have the suspension adjusted to take advantage of the amazing handling that these cars exhibit.

needs to be driven and not sitting in a garage

the speedometer cable apears to be faulty and needs to be replaced

why are we selling:

we have a new car project that we are undertaking and will require space, time and lots of resources to be realized. that means several cars and a couple projects must go.

terms:

i would like to do everything through paypal, but i am open to other transaction options.

upon winning the bid, i would like a $500 deposit within 24hours and i would like the remaining moneys to be transferred within 7 days.

if you would like to make other arrangements, please contact.

Mini Art Beat is a loud, driving social media billboard

Sat, 10 Aug 2013

Video billboards are nothing new, but a video on a moving car that's blaring music? Now that's something that will catch your attention - especially if you're driving alongside it in the streets of London.
That's the exact intent of Mini's new Art Beat, a Cooper Countryman turned marketing device that is custom-fitted with a staggering 48,000 LEDs. On its nightly drives through the city, the compact crossover showcases brightly colored videos, graphics and animations contributed by people around the world via social media. The Mini Space Blog describes the Art Beat as the "most vibrant and customizable NOT NORMAL ride you'll ever lay eyes on."

Mini Oxford gives birth to 3-millionth car [w/video]

Tue, 09 Sep 2014

With the latest generation of Minis having only recently launched a few months ago, the company's Plant Oxford has found another reason to celebrate as it reached two major milestones almost simultaneously. Since production of the new, BMW-revived version began there in 2001, the factory has produced 3 million of the retro-looking models and 2 million vehicles exported outside of the UK. Just four years ago, it was celebrating building 1.5 million of them.
The three-millionth model was a Mini Cooper S five-door hatchback with a special Union Jack paint job. At about the same time, the factory hit its two-millionth exported Mini to leave there, as well. It was a standard Mini hatchback in Volcanic Orange heading for a buyer in Japan.
UK Transport Minister Baroness Kramer attended the ceremony and said: "I congratulate the workers at Mini Plant Oxford on reaching this remarkable milestone. The Mini is a British icon and is a major part of a thriving automotive industry spearheading the growing British economy."
