BODY OVERVIEW:
With just under 160,000 miles, the body on this Mini has held up remarkably well, here 20 years later. The exterior is in good condition overall and holds its own on the street and track, though it has a few paint imperfections (as seen in the photos) from years of thrilling drives and corner-carving action. This has been a southern car since it was new, and it shows! The gray paint adds to its understated, performance-oriented vibe, perfect for someone who wants to fly under the radar… until they hit the gas.
 

PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Taking the mileage into consideration, the paint has held up well, but it’s not showroom-perfect. A few imperfections add character, showing off the fact that this Mini has been out there doing what it was built for. This car isn’t for those who obsess over flawless paint anyway—it’s for drivers who love the thrill of the road! 
 

INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Inside, it’s all about race-ready customization with a flair for style. Blue NRG Prisma racing bucket seats and Sparco 6-point harnesses bring track-level safety and support, while the fiber optic starlight headliner adds a unique touch for nighttime cruising. The rear seat has been removed in favor of a roll cage, for added safety. Custom-painted trunk plastics complete the look, giving this Mini a vibe that’s equal parts performance machine and show car!
 

MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
This Mini’s heart is a supercharged 1.6L engine enhanced by the John Cooper Works performance package. It’s been modified and dialed in for track use, but is still completely street-legal. The 6-speed manual transmission lets you make the most of every gear, while the suspension and handling upgrades keep it glued to the pavement. Turn-key and track-ready—this Mini is ready to make a statement wherever it goes!
