LOHEN tuned 240bhp+ Cooper S Show car.

Description:

Sadly the time has come to regrettably advertise my Cooper S. I’ve owned it for a year now as my weekend car and loved every minute! I’ve seen the car built into what it is today since it first came to the area over 5/6 years ago. So I know the inns, the outs. Every stage of its show life, every magazine and all the history. Believe me when I say this has been a very well looked after car.
It breaks my heart to have to sell it after wanting it for so many years, but personal circumstances mean I can’t justify two cars anymore.

Basics:

Fully Lohen tuned 240+ BHP
Countless magazine features.
Excess of £20,000 spent - excluding purchase of the car.
75,000 miles
2003
3 keys
4 Recent new tyres
Folder full of receipts, servicing history etc…

I’ll try to remember as many of the specs as possible but will most likely have missed so many things out!

That’s just off the top of my head, just let me put it this way… Every single thing that could be uprated, has been!

Downsides:
Few stone chips to the front end.
Vinyl is showing signs of age but ONLY inside the door shuts where it is very tight and had to be stretched a lot. The vinyl on the car itself is completely sound and not lifting anywhere!
Currently has no MOT as it failed on the decat – If I can find a friendly garage it will be sold with a years MOT. Though as it stands is has none, and I have the certificate to show it was just the decat it failed on, nothing else!
Polished lip on the alloys needs attention.
Just want to be completely honest!


This is a truly one off car. It sounds, drives and handles like nothing else. Really is a pleasure to drive! The attention it receives everywhere you go is unbelievable. I will be truly sad to see this go.


Now the hard part – Putting a price on something like this is always hard. All I’ll say is it sold to the previous owner for £7500, he had it for two years in his garage and done 5000 miles. I then bought it off him and I know what I payed for it!

I’m looking for offers in the region of £5500. I’m taking a loss at that, so even though I need to sell I would rather leave it sat in my garage than accept a silly offer.
Please feel free to ask me any questions, I’ll help in any way I can.

Thanks kindly,
Chris.
