For sale is my 2003 Mini Cooper S (R53). I've gone through everything on this car and always replaced the engine oil with full synthetic at 5,000 mile intervals or sooner. This car is good for at least another 100,000 miles with basic maintenance. Garage kept, no leaks or rust, comes with receipts from myself and the previous owner who was a collector of Minis/Porsche. Clean blue title in hand, no accidents or stories. Brand new registration until 09/2026! 159,000 miles and will go up as I drive it regularly.
- Valeo clutch w/ solid flywheel conversion with new bushings, throw out bearing, gaskets/seals
- Thumper performance TPR-1 cylinder head w/ 5 angle valve job. ARP head studs. (improves overall drivability and fuel MPG)
- 380cc injectors
- Stainless steel cat back exhaust
- 17% supercharger pulley, 2% overdrive crank pulley.
- new water pump, fan unit, aluminum radiator, heater matrix, oil cooler.

Other misc upgrades- Craven short shifter, Detroit tuned bypass valve, ARP camshaft bolt, Alta CAI, aluminum coolant tank, silicone coolant lines, M7 oil catch can, new front shock top hats.
*Note- Corbeau seat and tow hook does not come with car.*
The bad:
Passenger window motor inoperable, crack in windshield, radio unit not hooked up, minor clear peel on the back as with a lot of chili red Minis.
I can include a discount on maintenance on the car.
Willing to entertain offers for gen 1 Porsche Cayennes.
