This 2005 Mini Cooper S convertible was initially sold in Georgia and remained registered in the state through the seller’s acquisition in 2015. Finished in Hyper Blue Metallic with white hood stripes over black vinyl, the car is powered by a supercharged 1.6-liter inline-four paired with a six-speed manual transaxle. Modifications installed under current ownership include an aftermarket supercharger pulley and ATI crank damper, a DDM air intake, a Milltek exhaust, a Way Motor Works ECU tune, a Hotchkis rear sway bar, a WMW front strut tower brace, and Koni struts and shocks. The car is factory-equipped with the Cockpit Chrono Package, a black soft top, 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels, xenon headlights, Park Distance Control, heated front seats, automatic climate control, and a Harman Kardon sound system. The oil was changed and the water pump was replaced in 2023. This R52 Cooper S convertible is offered at no reserve with a window sticker, the owner’s manual, service records, spare parts, a Carfax report, and a clean Georgia title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Hyper Blue Metallic with white hood stripes and features a power-retractable black soft top, xenon headlights, fog lights, a functional hood scoop, Park Distance Control, body-color mirror caps, and twin center-exit exhaust outlets with brushed stainless-steel slash-cut finishers. The Carfax report notes an incident with another vehicle in August 2006 and that the “vehicle was not damaged.” The convertible top module was replaced in October 2023. Close-up photos presented in the gallery show cracks in the beltline trim and seals at the base of the soft top.
The 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with 205/45 Cooper Zeon tires. The modified suspension features Powerflex polyurethane bushings, a WMW front strut tower bar, a 19mm Hotchkis rear sway bar, and Koni FSD struts and shocks. Braking is handled by four-wheel anti-lock discs.
The heated front bucket seats and split-folding rear bench are upholstered in black vinyl. Equipment includes automatic climate control, cruise control, and a CD stereo linked to a Harman Kardon sound system.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a column-mounted 150-mph speedometer and an 8k-rpm tachometer while gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and oil temperature are housed in the center of the dashboard. The digital odometer indicates 87k miles, approximately 34k of which were added under current ownership.
The supercharged 1.6-liter inline-four is modified with a 15% reduction supercharger pulley, an ATI crank damper, a revised coolant reservoir, a DDM air intake, a Milltek cat-back exhaust system, and Way Motor Works ECU software. Work in 2023 included changing the oil and replacing the water pump and rear oxygen sensor. An oil change was performed in June in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the front wheels through a Getrag six-speed manual transaxle.
The Carfax report shows the aforementioned accident report in August 2006 and lists history in Georgia from new.
