MotoringFile 2007 MCS (JCW) For Sale Sold!

(Apologies for the personal/site news but this may interest a few of you) Yes it’s official, I’m selling my MINI. Due to some new needs and some shifting priorities I’ve decided to sell my fully loaded 2007 MINI Cooper S with almost every conceivable factory and JCW option.

The car would be over $38,000 to replicate with all accessories but with only 10,000 miles I’m selling it for $30,000. While I could probably get a more for the car, I would rather pass on a great car to an MF reader who will enjoy it as much as I have for a really fair price.

So if you’re interested, here’s the full run-down of options and accessories on the car:

  • Astro Black Body Color $450

  • Cold Weather $500: Heated Seats, Heated washer jets, Power-fold mirrors

Performance:

  • Standard Suspension STD (JCW Suspension currently on the car – STD suspension in a box)
  • Front Fog Lamps STD
  • Rear Fog Lamp $100
  • Limited Slip Differential $500
  • 6-Speed Getrag Manual STD

Interior/Cockpit:

  • JCW Steering Wheel: $585
  • JCW Side Scuttle: $155
  • JCW Leather shift knob gaiter $45
  • JCW Leather e-brake gaiter $45

Tires and Wheels:

  • Silver 18″ OZ Ultraleggeras (17lbs) $1,340 – I’ll throw in one slightly bent but repairable Ultraleggera as well
  • 215/40ZR-18 Kumho Ecsta SPTs (two months old) $464

    Gabe,

    I am very interested in your car; I am currently in Iraq. I am due back in November. I am an Illinois resident and will be flying back there in November from San Diego once I return. I would be back Illinois the third or fourth week of November to pick the car up. How much of a deposit would you require to hold the car until I return. This is a serious offer; I have a 09 JCW on order right now but would drop my order in a heartbeat to take the car off of your hands. Please let me know.

    He is and it looks like he’ll be the new owner as things stand now.

  • ejkd

    Congrats to Lance! I am confident he will not regret it. I stop by at Patrick MINI last weekend and saw a JCW MINI ; not fully loaded like non leather seat, non-navigation etc. and the MSRP is already $32,000! It’s by no means no near to Gabe’s car.

  • bem

    given the state of the economy does anyone think mini dealers will start negotiating a little more

  • Lance

    Greg,

    Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate the support of those who those who extend it. It’s often a hard pill to swallow when some folks back home are a little less than supportive. I’ve been in the Marine Corps for the past seventeen and a half years now and enjoy what I do on a daily basis. I am very much looking forward to getting back home for more than a couple reasons now. I look forward to the cross country drive in the Mini. It is going to be a pleasure being a part of such a great family of supporters. I look forward to many more articles and updates via this forum.

    All thanks to YOU my friend. I hold a MINI event in Cleveland each year at a place called the Pub. We get around 100 Minis each year and it’s a blast. I invite ALL M.F. people to attend the next one 6/6/09 but Lance if you bring your new Mini I will personally pay for your hotel room as well as dinner at the Pub for you and your companion. It will be my honor. Semper Fi!

    Lance has bought the car. I’ve had people from all over North America call and email – thanks for all the interest everyone.

  • C4

    Congratulations to both buyer and seller!

  • greg

    Man it took me three months to sell my similar ’07 JCW. Gabe sells his in 10 minutes.

  • http://www.motoringfile.com/ Gabe

    For the record I had five leads from the MF posting and four from one day on cars.com (most very serious). I litterally had people interested from all over the world.

    Wow. This is such a happy deal!
