Hi guys,

I am possibly looking to sell my MCS, this is because I am now covering more miles and I need something a little bit more economical. Its a shame because I have to say that the MCS is the best car I have ever owned. I am probably going to get a MC instead as I can not live without a Mini.

My MCS is finished in Chilli Red and '53' reg and it has a private plate (M5 VCT) that will stay with it.

It is fitted with a Chilli pack, White wheels and roof, Union Jack roof decal, Interior Chrome Pack, Heated Mirrors and Washers, H/K Stereo, 4 x BMW Spots, Aero Side Skirts, Tinted Rear Windows, Pipercross Induction Kit, TLC.

It has covered 32000 mls and is fully serviced. It is in very nice condition and drives wonderfully.

Have a look in my gallery for pics of the car.

Thanks for reading and any advice given.

Matt

Keep the plate, or advertise it separately. It won't add a penny in value to your MCS but the next owner will probably just sell it to make a few quid!

Are you sure about this? Your mileage so far looks low'ish, you won't save that much
in petrol by going to a Cooper. If you are buying from a dealer it will cost to change and
that will buy a lot of petrol. If you are buying privately you will be buying an unknown
quantity that may give problems. I'm not saying don't change but check those sums
first, the less often you change your cars the cheaper they are to run long term.
