2006 Mini Cooper S This auction is for a 2006 Mini Cooper S. It is offered for sale by a private seller in Charleston, West Virginia. Please read the entire description and feel free to ask any specific questions you may have, I'm happy to take calls and emails at any time. This is a neighbor's vehicle, I have listed it on his behalf. I've listed and sold several vehicles of mine over the years and always had a good experience. I'm not a dealer but an enthusiast, it's the only reason I listed this one for him; it has a great story and is a unique piece. I've started the bidding at a low price so everyone has a chance to get in and the reserve is extremely reasonable. Thanks for looking and enjoy the auction. Every car has a story and this one is amazing! This car was purchased from Hendrick MINI in Charlotte, NC on 12/01/2006. The original window sticker is intact. It was then driven to Charleston, WV where it has spent it's entire life in a garage being driven regularly a few miels at a time to keep the fluids and systems in operation. The owner had plans to retire and travel out west in his motor home and tow his Triumph TR6 for some fun driving experiences. Upon further consideration; he decided that constantly repairing a Triumph whilst on the open road might not be a good idea. So, he purchased the Mini; still British (somewhat) and still a fun drive. Needless to say, the recession hit and all plans were off. The motor home was sold and retirement put on hold. The Mini was garaged next to the Triumph and thus is the story. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION EXTERIOR This car's white paint is as glossy as it was the day it rolled off the assembly floor. As I stated earlier, the vehicle has never even been in rain or snow. There is one rock chip on the front passenger side near the headlamp and two small scratches on the front bumper (see pictures) from something bumping it in the garage. Other than that, it's perfect. The glass is all original and in perfect condition. The wheels are in perfect shape. INTERIOR The black leather (yes, real leather, $1,700 option) interior is in perfect condition as well. The rear seats were never sat in and the passenger seat has carried a passenger maybe a total of 20 miles. No scuffs or scratches here either. All controls are functional and operational. Everything is as it should be. ENGINE / TRANSMISSION The engine and transmission are in like new condition. The car starts, runs and drives as it should. With this kind of mileage you are not going to experience any problems here. WHEELS / TIRES The 17" wheels and tires are exactly as nice as they appear in the pictures. The tires are original and obviously, only have 1,600 miles on them. EXTRAS & ADD ONS English Panther Black Leather $1,700.00 Combo #1 $1,400.00 Multifunction Steering Wheel with Cruise Dual-Pane Panoramic Sunroof Automatic Air Conditioning On-Board Computer Combo #2 $1,900.00 Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) Front Fog Lamps 17" Alloy Wheels S-Lite / Performance Run-flat Tires Bonnet Stripes Xenon Headlights with powerwash Limited Slip $500.00 Chrome Line Interior $200.00 Center Armrest $200.00 Harman Kardon Sound System $550.00 PLEASE FEEL FREE TO INQUIRE AS TO THE SPECIFICS OF THE COMBO PACKAGES OR REQUEST A COPY OF THE WINDOW STICKER. That's about all I can say for the car. I wish there were more to tell you but it's just that nice. There's nothing to document damage wise on the car. I have a CARFAX in hand and am willing to email it to anyone who wants a copy. Again, please feel free to call or email with any questions whatsoever. THE DETAILS Please review the entire listing before bidding. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. Please have payment and or financing arranged before bidding. No trades are accepted.

I'm willing to work with anyone on any aspect of the purchase, just ask before so we can get it worked out quick and smooth, my time is limited. Thank you for your time and interest. Good luck.

Street Glory Mappers turning cars into dynamic billboards like this
Fri, 04 Jul 2014A French marketing firm with the impenetrable name of Street Glory Mappers is literally turning cars into billboards. Of course, we've all seen vehicles painted up for promotional use, but this company is taking that concept even further by including video.
Street Glory Mappers equips the vehicles with a large video screen behind the windshield to play whatever is being advertised. According to the company's promo, it may even be possibly to sync up the vehicle's lights with the show, as well. The firm claims that it's a great form of temporary, mobile marketing because the car can arrive at the location, play the video and then go away when the prospective audience leaves.
While it doesn't necessarily seem any more effective than other forms of advertising, the firm's idea is at least unobtrusive. After all, it's easier to ignore a stationary car than a person handing out flyers. However, vehicle flashing its lights and playing video could certainly distract other drivers.

Mini exiting WRC after just one year
Fri, 12 Oct 2012There was a fair bit of hullabaloo two years ago when Mini announced a return to the World Rally Championship for this season, but the road to making that happen has been as rocky as a gravel stage. It spent 2011 developing its JCW Countryman WRC challenger, changing its mind about how it wanted to work with Prodrive, dumped a driver due to budget issues, then registering its entry after the deadline had passed in a ploy that might or might not have been a protest aimed at the WRC promoter.
Mini had stated that it wanted to win the whole championship in 2013, and spent 2011 doing six WRC rounds as development. As it stands for this year, the WRC Team Mini Portugal - paid for by Mini, run by ProDrive - scored 26 points in the first rally at Monte Carlo and has so far blanked the rest of the season. The relationship between Mini and ProDrive appeared to be an ever-contentious affair, at the end of this season, even the money will dry up along with what support there was.
Because it contested every race in the calendar, though, Mini says it has completed the FIA requirements for homologation of the JCW Countryman WRC; meaning that privateers can continue purchasing the car and run it in the WRC. BMW Motorsport is continuing development and parts supply of the 1.6-liter turbo engine, and a report in Autosport indicates that ProDrive will continue to run Minis in the series next year.
