FS: 2010 MINI Cooper S

Post by Dentspeed »

This is a bit of a unicorn car. It has a mechanical LSD as well as the edifferential. This was the only year for this, because they quit putting the diff in halfway through the model year, AND it was the first year for the edifferential. There is NO wheel spin on the inside tire in corners.

95,000 miles, well maintained. Castrol edge every 5000 miles. New fuel pump, recent rotors and pads. No sunroof or any other weight adding options. In race trim it weighs 2480 lbs.

Included: Koni yellows (single adj) , 22 adjustable rear sway bar(I can't remember brand), Rota Slipstream wheels 16x6.5.

The bad news. I got hit while it was parked and it has minor damage on the passenger door.

I can have it fixed and ask $10,800 for everything
Or
$9,800 as is. Otherwise it's very clean.

PM me and give your cell, and I'll send pics.

Hard top right?obviously with sunroof comment but have to ask.. :mrgreen: How much ground clearance and suspension travel?

Tire size? Would need to see what snow tires would fit it.

That's why I wonder the ground clearance. Winning stock class car has been Honda civic si with factory limited slip. Mini has better power, better limited slip, so... Ground clearance, tire selection and the speed in each gear. Winning stock class AWD is Evo IX.. One of those unmolested is $22k. I like dented = less :mrgreen:

Downside, would need to change the shocks back to non adjustable ( I believe) and do you have the factory sway bar?

I'll vouch for the LSD in this car. Inside wheelspin was almost zero in autox

I love these cars. They are the only front wheel drive cars I have ever enjoyed driving. They don't really feel like FWD, they are very well balanced.
