Daniel S here!
In University of Limerick (final year Mechanical Engineering)!
From Ennis, Co. Clare.
Looking to buy a R53 Mini Cooper S until I can afford insurance on a John Cooper Works version.
Also trying to sell my Ford Focus, so could be a little while before I get the Mini.
Anyone else from Limerick around? Ever go to Cars & Coffee? Would love to meet a few members and hear their opinions on the car!
So finally I got this done after over a year of trying!
Swapped the '06 Focus (and €700) for an '03 Cooper S with similar mileage, but a far better car overall.
Few things to sort out:
- Front left bumper scuff
- Nurburgring sticker removal
- Paint chips
- Rear window wiper needs replacing
- Headlight adjustment switch is missing
- 12v socket loose and not working
- Parcel shelf won't drop after boot opens, stopping it from closing
- Rear bumper trim missing?
- Damaged trim around body
- Central locking on passenger door doesn't work
- Windscreen has a chip
- Slight dent on the boot
Looking to get a few upgrades soon, Aero grill and a few other exterior tweeks. I'll post them here anyway.
Here it is, just after I brought home. Plates have been replaced and the awful chrome surround removed.
