Description
A superb example of the 2017 MINI Cooper S Works, finished in the highly desirable and rare Chilli Red specification. This is a well-maintained, enthusiast-owned car that has been tastefully enhanced while retaining the character, performance and everyday usability that make the Cooper S Works so enjoyable.
The car benefits from a mixture of MINI main dealer and independent MINI specialist servicing history. It has been exclusively run on Tesco Momentum 99 premium unleaded during my ownership, reflecting the level of care and attention given to the car.
A genuine factory MINI John Cooper Works big brake kit was fitted in August 2023, providing improved braking performance while maintaining an OEM finish. Within the last year, the engine purge valve and both upper and lower engine mounts have also been replaced with genuine factory parts as these are both common failures on the otherwise very reliable B48 engine.
The car has been tastefully upgraded with a full exterior de-chrome package, genuine John Cooper Works carbon fibre tailpipes, and geniune carbon fibre interior enhancements including the gear knob and steering wheel trims.
All four tyres were replaced in January this year with a matching set of Bridgestone Turanza tyres, leaving plenty of life remaining.
The car drives exactly as it should, with a smooth manual gearbox, responsive turbocharged engine and no known faults. A genuine example that has been properly maintained and improved with carefully selected upgrades.
Receipts and supporting documentation for servicing, maintenance and upgrades are available.
A reluctant sale due to a change in personal circumstances. This MINI has been a genuine joy to own, but it is now time for it to find a new owner who will appreciate it as much as I have.
Viewings and inspections are welcome.
