In contemplating a move to the bay area/San Francisco, I need to consider the possibility that I will need to sell my car to help cover moving expenses, and the fact that the city isn't very car friendly.

Kurt knows the condition of my car as well as I do, and knows that I take care of my ride.  I'd sell him with all of the aftermarket parts installed to facilitate a quick sale, those include: header, rear 21mm sway bar, poly engine mounts, RMW street cam, 17% pulley/belt/new tensioner, plus others.

Ideally I'd like to get around $14,000 for him, and according to NADA and KBB, that's a pretty fair asking price.

If you know anyone who might be interested, or you're considering coming back to the MINI family, let me know.

Thanks!

Yeah, if I can keep him I most definitely will, but we'll see what happens

Are you bringing him to the show on the 25th? Would be a good way to see how much interest there would be.

I have to say, the colors are perfect. 
 
Nice car for someone.

I have a coworker who is starting a search for a mini.  I gave her this website to look at, so she may post here soon.  When you decide, let me know and I'll see how she is coming in her search.  Pat

Well, that would suck if you have to sell! And I never even got a chance to do your front control arm bushings! 

I hope we see you at the car show, at least! 

The car is in fine shape from what I remember. 

Jason, some photos might help people to contemplate.

What a true statement!  I have had family living there for 50+ yrs and their cars always look like trash(dents,dings), have alignment issues and rust.  It is a perfect city(SF) for a plastic bodied car with soft suspension.  On the plus side the weather there is great!!

Good luck with the move :-)
