A great modern classic, with regular maintenance and components changed as needed, by a mix of independent mechanics, MINI dealership and specialists over my ownership.

I have enjoyed the car for a decade as it’s 3rd enthusiast owner, it is 23 yrs old so as expected not perfect but highly rewarding and worth preserving , It has a suspected knock from hydraulic tappet area ( conrod bearings checked + new tensioner timing chain assembly belts etc changed) exhaust rear section needed in the future, and a small weep from the steering reservoir hose. Fresh oil and filter service in last few weeks.

It is a great opportunity to run, enjoy and renovate this amazing handling car, while prices are accessible.

Happy to answer any further question's/ photos
