2003 Mini Cooper S S Description

This is a one of a kind opportunity at an amazing and original 2003 Mini Cooper S. If you're reading this, then you likely know the deal, but for those who don't, the original SUPERCHARGED 2001-2005 MCS cars are REALLY the ones to have. After this, they began turbocharging them, and they just weren't nearly as fun or lively to drive. Collectors are already waking up to this little nuance, and understanding that these will never be made again this way, are starting to scoop them up. Not to mention, these cars are an absolute BLAST to own and drive ("go kart with a license plate" is the phrase that gets used a lot).

This particular example has been in the long term ownership of a very well known car collector, and has been treated and maintained as such. No expense has been spared in making this car essentially perform as new. Recent documented service and updates include:

*Complete new cylinder head & all related gaskets (~$3,000.00)
*All new clutch
*New Power steering pump (above together over $3,600.00)
*New input seal
*New crankshaft seal & oil pan gasket
*Transmission fluid flush
*New control arms
17″ wheels were fitted as part of Option Package #2, which alsoincluded many of the sport-oriented features like foglights, sport seats, hatch spoiler, and Xenon headlights.
The car benefits from a free flow cat back sport exhaust system, which greatly enhances performance, and nicely adds some horsepower from the stock configuration.
Paint on this car is beautiful, with a wonderful shine. No noticeable dings or dents to speak of, and only some small stone chips up front tell the story of just how much this car has been enjoyed.
The interior is unmodified and in very good condition. The fragile finish on the dash face shows very little wear or scratching, and all interior features work as they should, including the A/C and all of the dash displays.
Essentially, this car has had more than the complete asking price invested in preventative maintenance, over the last three years. Get it all for free with the price of the car, and drive without worry, as all the concerns that typically plague these cars have been taken care of.
Yes, I know there are Mini Cooper "S" cars for $5K, and even less. You could never invest enough into these rough or needy cars, to make them as nice as this one.
118k miles. 6 speed. Everything works, zero needs, and ready for an enthusiastic new owner. Excellent leather and interior, ice cold AC, great stereo with AUX input.
Call/text/email to discuss or arrange a time to see.

I encourage all potential buyers to come inspect the car in personpriorto buying or bidding. Your bid or offer is a binding contract. Feel free to call me with any questions or for more information. Car condition is subjective. I have owned over 100 collector vehicles, and am picky about my cars, but potential owners should decide for themselves if this car is for them. Car is sold AS IS, WHERE IS. Transportation is ultimately the responsibility of the buyer. International bidders are welcome, but please have U.S. funds and transportation arranged prior to auction's end. Zero or negative feedback bidders please contact me prior to bidding or your bid may be cancelled. Please only bid or offer if you are serious. Finally, feel free to email or call me at 574-361-5315 with any questions, more details, or if you'd like to make an offer. Good luck!
