2008 MINI R56 John Cooper Works JCW - Genuine JCW - Excellent History For sale is my 2008 MINI R56 John Cooper Works, finished in Dark Silver with contrasting roof and wing mirrors. This is a genuine factory JCW, not a Cooper S converted to JCW specification. It's a fantastic little car to drive quick, responsive and great fun on the lanes, whilst still being perfectly capable on longer motorway journeys. It currently has approximately 138,000 miles, which will increase slightly as the car is still being used. Excellent history & recent maintenance One of the main reasons I bought this particular car was its history. It has been enthusiast-owned previously and comes with a large folder of paperwork, receipts and documentation covering work carried out over the years. Some of the major recent work includes: Timing chain and water pump replaced at 118,177 miles (2023) Clutch replaced at 121,240 miles (2023) Brake vacuum pump replaced (2022) Rear discs and pads replaced at 127,950 miles Four new tyres within the last year Over £1,200 spent during my ownership addressing MOT/emissions requirements and advisories Full clean and service completed August 2026 MOT until May 2027 Two keys Extensive history and receipts SPEC: Genuine MINI John Cooper Works JCW 6-speed manual Dark Silver Contrasting roof and wing mirrors Full Lounge leather interior Heated front seats Factory satellite navigation Bluetooth phone connectivity AUX input Rear ISOFIX Interior coloured lighting Chilli Pack Two keys MODS: Lowering springs AEM intake Sports catalytic converter Team Dynamics 1.2 wheels Dynamic side indicators The car sounds fantastic and is loud, quick and responsive without taking away from its usability. CONDITION: There are a couple of scratches here and there, as you'd expect from a 2008 car, but no dents or dings and nothing that detracts from what is a very tidy example. Mechanically, it has benefited from a substantial amount of recent maintenance. REASON FOR SALE: I bought the car because I wanted something genuinely fun to drive, and it absolutely delivers. I'm only selling because, reluctantly, I've reached the point where a MINI no longer fits the needs of my family. A genuine, enthusiast-owned R56 JCW with a huge amount of history and several of the major jobs already taken care of. Sensible offers considered. Viewing welcome, for serious enquiries.
