Smile Mini Cooper S BBR220 FOR SALE

From the end of April I will have my MCS with the BBR220 conversion for sale. The car is in as new condition with amazingly with NO stone chips, dents or marks on it. The wheels are unmarked except for one tiny chip (pot hole) on the front left.
Maybe it's the constant cleaning and polishing with Swissol products

I ensure she is always warmed up and cooled down. From day one the car has always been run on Optimax.

Car was carefully run in as per the users guide and then at approx 1300 (March 04) miles she was taken to BBR Gti in Brackley where they performed the 220 BHP conversion and lightened my wallet of approx £1500. Part of the conversion included a replacement K&N panel airfilter.
Immedialtely after the conversion and running in period I had my local dealer perform an oil and filter change.

First registered January 23rd 2004 and covered just 10,200 miles todate.

High specification which cost me approx £18k when new.

Dark Silver
Black roof and mirrors
Chilli Pack
Aerokit front grill and colour coded side skirts
17" alloys with Pirelli runflats (approx 5-6mm tread left)
Xenon lights
Upgraded full beam and side light bulbs to match the xenons
Clear indicator bulbs (so no orange visible through lens)
Winter pack (heated mirrors, washerjets)
Eibach Pro springs
Half leather seats with Lapis blue inserts and blue carpets
Patina dash
HKardon CD stereo
DSC
Climate control
TLC Service package
Warranty remaining

The car has cost me approx £20k to get to the excellent spec it is now. All receipts and associated paperwork available.
A first service will be done in the next few weeks.

Looking for £16,995 ono. Save yourself money on a JCWorks and get a quicker car here

Any questions please ask here or email me or call me on 0771 2191888

Thanks Paul

Thanks Dave. Surprisingly little response so far for such a good spec, low mileage, quick car.

I bet it would surprise a few scooby drivers how quick it was and the handling is sublime Coming from a few Scoobs incl. my last a P1 with bumpsteer mod, I reckon the MCS is a much, much better handling car with much more feel and feedback. Lacking in the grip dept though ;-)

I test drove a Mini Works last week and it is a very good car.

How have you kept the warrenty or does it now exclude certain parts ?

Fair call. However, my dealer and many others still honour the warranty. See mini2.com for other BBR owners. And not that it matters, but I don't go shouting about the conversion or have any stickers on the car highlighting the work by BBR.
