It certainly is well specced up, especially for a one but the miles are quite high.
Maybee 9K is quite high as you can get a 2005 cooper now with average miles and chilli pack for under 9k and it has 3 spoke wheel, half leather and 16 inch wheels as standard.

Cheers mate, it is quite high milage but have seen alot less specd ones goin for close to that. I reckon maybe £8500 would be a reasonavle price, the paint could do with a good buff which would make it look even better. :D

remember though that you cant compare private and retial prices.
Your car although it is appears to be a good car wouldnt be able to be sold via the mini cherished at a mini dealer as it is past the 50k miles mark. therefore a mini dealer if you were to trade it in would have to trade it out to the trade and would not not get as good a bid for it.

I think you are right about trying it in at £8500 in the autotrader but remember that you will get bid down as it is the nature of the game. Car sales are a bit slow at the moment.

Yep exactly what I was thinking, thats why I was hoping if I put it in for £9000 then it would come down £500 after bargaining. Its in the Scot Ads today so will see how it goes and its on ebay and Pistonheads aswell so hopefully someone will take a liking! haha
