Vehicle description
Up for auction is my R52 cabrio. The car is a 2006 S model, meaning it has the supercharged 1.6L 4 cylinder engine. The paint color is Pepper White and really stands out, even when parked next to a pack of minis.
First off, I"ll apologize for the dimly lit photographs. I had the car washed and detailed and scrambled to get the pics before it got dark because I knew I was taking the car on a trip in the morning and it would get filthy.
I normally go in to a long diatribe when I sell cars, but I"ll try and keep this one a little more concise.
Since owning the car I"ve taken care of nearly all R50-R53 mini headaches, to include the following:
Replaced inner and outer ball joints Replaced lower control arm bushings with Powerflex units Replaced power steering feed and return lines Replaced front rotors and pads with Raybestos units Replaced rear pads Replaced brake wear sensors, front and rear with Hella units Flushed and filled cooling system as well as the automatic transmission (filter and pan gasket replaced) Replaced rear wheel bearings Replaced air filter Changed the oil and filter today with synthetic oil and NAPA gold filter Replaced wiper blades with Bosch units
The car runs incredibly well and has the Tiptronic 6 speed transmission, not the CVT. The replaced suspension components really make the car handle like a dream. I"d hazard to say the automatic is quicker than the standard transmission models and the Tiptronic makes it a blast to drive in the selectable Sport mode. The supercharger adds quite a punch and people are surprised at how hard the little 1.6L pulls.
The stereo has been replaced with a Pioneer Bluetooth media receiver that syncs with iphone and andriod. All speakers were replaced with Rockford Fosgate units.
As far as condition goes, I"d say it"s in exceptional condition and runs and drives fantastic. The soft top has a few stains near where it folds and one trunk hinge is missing the trim piece. There are a few small dings in the body, but it"s hard to tell with the white paint. The front passengers seat has two seams that have pulled free of the stitching. The tires are General Altimax"s and the fronts will need replacing before winter, but will last through the rest of cruising season, the rears are near new.
The car is optioned with backup sensors as well as front and rear driving lights.
The top goes up and down in under 20 seconds either way and has a provision to open halfway like a moonroof and the AC works great. .if you choose to keep the top up.
The car will come with one key that also operates all windows and the convertible top.
I drive the car on at least one 500 mile round trip a week from Central PA to Pittsburgh (sometimes two) with absolute confidence. .and in heaven with the top down. I"m selling this one as I have a R53 hatch I just restored and two minis is excessive according to other household members. . .
I can help arrange shipping at the buyers expense and will gladly ask any questions you may have. I can also take brighter pictures if necessary.
