Up for auction is a 2002 MINI Cooper with less than 42,000 original miles.  First year for the 'new' MINIs, and I have been the only owner.  Tires installed at 36,582 miles. Body looks great, interior looks good with small wear tear in driver seat.  Engine and transmission are in great shape.  Muffler is rusted but still effective.  

HOWEVER, there is an interior rain leak that I can not locate, and it has not only soaked the carpets but it has affected the wiring.  I located the wet wires and connectors in the driver's side wall, cleaned them and WD40d them and that worked for a while.  Eventually they got wet again, and now the tachometer and it's gauges do not work (which I could live with) and the battery keeps dying (which I can't live with).  I installed a new battery and it started and ran great, but 4 days later the new battery was dead.  At this point I can start it only by pushing it, or installing a new battery which I expect will just die in a few days.  

The car was in an accident in March 2013 and was excellently repaired, but perhaps that repair caused the leak.  My other thought was the sunroof, so I taped it closed but that did not solve my problem.  (And it left me with the residue of the tape on the roof. I think you can see it in the pictures).  

I am VERY frustrated and no longer want to put any more time into the car, so I am hoping it can find a more patient owner.  Or perhaps it will make a great parts car for anyone with a first gen MINI Cooper. 
 
Thanks for looking.  Hope you can give her a new home.

Mini John Cooper Works Paceman is a potent little hot hatch in a fat suit

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

If there's one thing we're never going to complain about, it's that Mini has found it necessary to put the John Cooper Works treatment on every single one of its models. We love the JCW package across the board, and the final installment of the high-performance chapter (for now, anyway) comes in the form of the John Cooper Works Paceman, debuting here at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
The John Cooper Works formula hasn't been altered in any way here, and like the JCW Countryman on which the Paceman is based, it comes standard with Mini's All4 all-wheel-drive system. We're sure it'll be a total hoot, and with 218 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque on tap, how could it not?
Look for the Mini JCW Paceman to hit dealerships in March of this year. Need to know more? Scroll down.

Mini celebrates racing success with John Cooper Works Countryman ALL4 Dakar Winner 2013

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

French drivers Stéphane Peterhansel and Jean-Paul Cottret drove a Mini Countryman to a class win at this year's Dakar Rally, and to commemorate their win, Mini has introduced a limited-volume car that will only be sold in France. The Mini John Cooper Works Countryman ALL4 Dakar Winner 2013 might be a mouthful to say, but it's a fitting tribute to Peterhansel's eleventh Dakar win as this Countryman is painted to look like the rally car and only 11 will be sold in the Peterhansel's home country.
Sporting a similar green-over-matte-black paint scheme as the Dakar Countryman, the JCW Countryman ALL4 Dakar Winner 2013 also adds green accents to the full-length top and side stripes, the side marker lights and also contrasting stitching inside the cabin. Adding to the car's rally look, this special edition will also include the racers' number card on the front doors, Dakar decals on the front and rear and Peterhansel's signature on the hood. Grille-mounted rally lights, bright red brake calipers and unique 19-inch wheels with dark-painted inserts finish off the exterior design.
