2009 MINI (R56) JOHN COOPER WORKS - Low mileage with Recaros etc (NOW SOLD)

[Fluoxetine]

Selling my factory John Cooper Works due to lack of use.

I’m the third owner, having bought it in May 2013 – As a late 2009 car, it benefits from the 2010 / LCI front bumper, with a larger splitter & brake ducts.

It was well spec’d from new:

Chilli pack (half leather interior with sports seats, xenon headlights, manual air-con, interior ‘mood’ lighting, 3-spoke leather steering wheel, multifunction computer).

And the following options were added:

Upgrade to full heated leather seats

Visibility pack (quick-clear front screen and wing mirrors / heated driver’s door
lock /auto lights & wipers / self-dimming rear view mirror)

Tinted glass

Park distance control (Rear)

Automatic climate control

Full Bluetooth

MINI Boost CD player with iPod Y cable

Arm rest with iPhone 4 dock (interchangeable)

Half leather / suede multi-function steering wheel with cruise control

Chrome-line interior

JCW mats

In addition, since purchasing the car I’ve added:

OEM JCW Recaro sports seats in alcantara – These are also heated, and were a £3k dealer fit option when new. (Got them from a chap on Mini Torque - Somewhat rarer than the more common leather Recaros)

OEM MINI Daylight Running Lights

OEM MINI GP2 rear diffuser

OEM LCI Black steering wheel inserts

(I have the original seats / diffuser / steering wheel inserts which will accompany the car when sold).

~31k miles on the clock, and MOT’d till 21/09/15

(Personalised plate has been removed - Now back on a '59' plate)

It’s been very well maintained, and serviced over and above manufacturer’s recommendations. Last service was completed August 2014, where it had plugs / all filters and engine oil changed and the latest turbo heat shield fitted at Menzies MINI.

They also changed out a faulty air-con condenser and recharged the system under warranty. (I have the official MINI warranty on the car, but unfortunately it’s non-transferable – The new purchaser would be able to commence a new monthly / annual policy if desired).

It has condition based servicing via the onboard computer, which is up to 15k / 2 years, so potentially needs nothing till August 2016.

In July 2014 it had a full laser alignment and the geo reset to factory specs at CLCM Edinburgh.

In June 2014 it had all four wheels refurbished (complete with new centre caps) and four new Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 tyres fitted in the correct 205/45 R17 size. I also obtained the OEM non-runflat tool tray for the boot cavity. (Has a compressor / puncture sealing solution).

In April / May 2014 it had all brake discs / pads / fluid replaced.

The car’s never let me down and been great fun to own – Just returned in late August from a 2200 mile trip around Europe, where it never missed a beat & coped remarkably well with both the autobahn and the Alps.
