Hey Guys,
I finally finished uni and hitting the workforce. Its finally time to buy my Mini. Following is list of specs im interested in.

04'-07' MCS R53 (Post facelift)
Not fussy about Chilli Pack

Colours in order of preference:
1. Lightning (hyper) blue
2. Chilli Red
3. BRG
4. Dark Silver
5. Black
6. Any other colours

Black or coloured roof. No white for now.
interior cloth: not fussy.
Low Kms preferred by not essential
Sydney Metro preferred but open to NSW.

I'm not in a rush to purchase as Im looking for MY ideal mini so i guess i should start early.

These specs aren't mandatory so post your mini here (or shoot me a PM or email of your MCS), i'll look at any minis.

Thanks!
Cho

Hi,

Good luck in the search for your car

I wouldn't rule out cars with a white roof. You can get a white roof converted to black for not much money. It is a very easy spray job for a panel shop, as it is a small area, easy to mask, and they don't have to overspray and match the colour to other panels on the car. If you find the right place it should cost no more than $300

Cheers

Robbo

Is that so? I've never had to deal with a panel shop (touch wood). Thanks for the info Robbo. I'll keep that in mind.

Hey mate,
I have the sort of car you are looking for - but in Brisbane. It's only a $150 for a flight up - and can do the trip back in a day. My mate bought a car from Sydney a couple of months ago and it was a nice trip home in the new car.

2007 R53 Hyper Blue and Black with Chilli Pack - with athracite dash/chrono package/chromeline/anthracite headlining - 8,000k's on the clock.

Still like brand new - warranty until 2010.
