The Track rod ends replaced 23rd February 2021 at 64, 242 miles and the car is shod with Pirelli P Zero runflat Tires all round that are in good order.
However the most significant recent work was a complete engine rebuild by Mini Specialists MW UK in Chichester, Sussex on 20th October 2023 at 71, 600 miles at a cost of £5890 and the car has covered just over 5000 miles since (current mileage 76, 922 miles)
The rebuild consisted of bottom end bearings set, pistons and rods, main bolts/ head bolts/ timing bolts/ 2 x caps, head gasket and seals, timing chain kit, oil pump, replacement cylinder head, waterpump/ pulley/ belt kit, thermostat housing/ crossover pipe, fluids and filters, Scorpion sports cat, spark plugs, silicone intake pipe, front and rear main seal, exhaust flexy pipe and welding, braided oil line feed, Vanos solenoid, oil cooler gaskets, oil pump chain kit. The specialist who rebuilt the engine recently confirmed the engine internal parts used for the rebuild were forged items meaning they are stronger than the standard parts.
Purchased in May 2024 predominantly for my partner to use as a second car and to visit her parents who live in the ULEZ zone, we have since discovered that we need a bigger car hence the reluctant sale of this superb pocket rocket. The car was immediately sent to respected BMW/ Mini specialists BMR Performance as soon as we purchased it for a service and health check on 31st May which included oil service/ microfilter service/ air filter service/ spark plug service/ vehicle check service and replacement of all badges with new original JCW items. BMR confirmed the car to be in excellent condition throughout.
Offered with V5, original owners book pack, original service, two sets of keys and history file, the ULEZ compliant Mini drives extremely well and is in excellent shape overall and has had substantial recent work to ensure its future proofed
