Mini Cooper S R53 John Cooper Works (JCW)

Sadly the time has come sell my JCW only due to the impending arrival of a new F56 JCW Challenge Edition.

I’ve had her for 3 years and she has been a pleasure to own, great fun and fast. I searched the UK for three months to find this stunning example and finally found her in the South of England in 2014.

Top of the range and fully loaded with :-

• Factory fit Sat Nav

• Full leather interior

• Privacy Glass

• Harmon Kardon Hi-Fi

• Bluetooth

• Heated seats

• Heated windscreen

• Xenon Lights

• Auto wipers

• Air con, cruise control, multi function wheel etc etc

She comes fitted with the full JCW performance engine upgrade kit, which takes power up to 200bhp and as a bonus she is also fitted with the desirable JCW body kit and factory fit rare clear rear tail lamps.

Superb condition throughout, with deep glossy black paintwork and excellent interior. Carpets look like new and leather is very good too. Wheels in great condition with nearly new Toyo T1R tyres on all four corners.

I’m a mature discerning owner and a real Mini enthusiast, so she has wanted for nothing during her time with me. I’ve carried out a few choice subtle upgrades to further improve performance, they are :-

• MTEC drilled & grooved discs with Mintex pads all round (fitted 50 miles ago)

• Forge short shift gear change

• Alcantara steering wheel by “Royal Steering Wheels” with matching gearlever and handbrake lever gaiters with red stitching

• Centre exhaust silencer delete, replaced with custom made stainless steel section

• MSD ignition coil

• Magnecor ignition leads

• “Dave F” air intake & 1320 optimised bypass valve

She sounds great now with just the right level of exhaust music combined with the intake whine form the supercharger, a perfect combination.

Fastidiously maintained, with great service history prior to my ownership and regular maintenance carried out to a very high standard since. 8 stamps in the book, with 5 of them being dealer stamps. Power steering pump replaced in 2008 and pump fan cleaned regularly to ensure no further problems.

• 19/10/14 – full service + front wheel bearings +discs/pads + petrol tank strap

• 21/10/14 – 4 Continental tyres
