Offered here is a 2005 mini Cooper S convertible finished in metallic silver with a black and grey interior and a black convertible roof. The car has 85,841 miles on the odometer. Overall, this car is a fantastic little car to drive and let me tell you why.
I bought the car in Washington state about 2 1/2 years ago. My plan was to use it as a project car which I did. I focused only on the engine, suspension and handling. What I added to the car follows:
- Mini Cooper S Stage 2 Power Upgrade Kit
- Cold air intake.
- Borla exhaust
- Upgraded Coil over suspension on all four corners
- Adjustable Rear Control Arms ( Megan Racing)camber in the front and rear wheels
- Complete new brakes with calipers rotors, braided lines
- Shark injector chip
- 15% reduction pulley on the supercharger
In addition, I replaced:
- The knock sensor
- The cam sensor (always cause for oil leaks)
- The water pump
- The alternator, the serpentine belt
- The radiator hoses
While it was out, I serviced the supercharger changing the oil in both ends
Replace the spark plugs with NKG iridium high-performance plugs
Replaced the HT wires with high performance wires
In the car itself:
- I put seat covers on the front seats. I have the rear covers, but I've not installed them as yet.
- I replaced the gearshift knob and replaced the gear lever boot.
- Replaced the parking brake boot and the parking brake handle mechanism.
- I replaced the headlights
- I replaced the rear lights
- I put new Continental tires all round
- Put 20 millimeter spaces on all wheels and replace the wheel nuts with studs.
So what's left to do to the car? It's all aesthetic.
- The Convertible sunroof works fine. The convertible top itself is not operational.
- I have a brand new oversized 60mm throttle body to be installed
- I have wider wheel arches to install
