For the right coop, the price is fine. However it needs a manual inspection i.e. someones needs to go over it with a fine tooth comb. Black (or dark colour) cars generally look good in pics.

So little mileage seems suspicious

Lots of items needs checking
- Full history from where
- How much oil it uses
- Have all the belts been done
- Why the change of alloys
- Why only 1 pic
- Any small accidents in the past

I mean the chap wants Mini Cooper S.. for blights sake!!

Jeez Nazo, set the FBI on him your being highly suspicious of him

The belts if not done are only 4 days overdue and why only 1 pic, it costs to put pics on ebay, maybe hes a tight arse Low mileage, if I bought my car from new and in the year 2000 it would today have approx 10k on the clock!

he's got more pics on his own site.

If he wants top dollar, he's going to have to sort out that bonnet lip.

£8k. I got a new MOT and tax plus a full tank of fuel!

I've actually known the owner for 22 years and the car itself from new. I must admit I had a chuckle reading some of the 'suspicious' replies but I suppose there aren't many 18,500k 20V Plus' about these days!

I love it

Well done mate, that is one lovely motor.

Believe me, you weren't the only one having a laugh at the suspicious comments. My favs were 'why are the alloys different ?', and the one about how 'the car dosent LOOK loved' - just because it had a parking scuff.

Anyhow, enjoy the car. One piece of advice though, don't get too excited about getting a free tank of fuel, cos it sure as hell won't last you for long.....

I think the comments were fair. The alloys were scuffed and there was also a dent in the bonnet

yep - if it was LOVED - the bonnet would have been repaired straight away - trust me, I've loved coupes and the dents and scuffs would have been repaired
