MINI Cooper S R53 1.6 Compressor 120 kW / 163 hp EZ 08/2003

I sell my MINI Cooper S

The MINI is ready to drive and is still very good. It is sold as a project/farmer vehicle due to the deficiencies found in the last HU.

Recently renewed:

-new battery, built in August 2026 -Renewed cooling water intermediate

The MINI jumps reliably and drives. Engine and compressor make a good impression.

Vehicle data

* MINI Cooper S R53 * 1.6 liter compressor * 120 kW / 163 hp * First registration: 08/2003 * approx. 177.870 km * Gasoline * 6-speed manual transmission * Color: blue + cool pattern

Optically, the MINI is of course not a new car, but has wear marks corresponding to the age. However, it does not have larger dents and makes a lot with its blue-white look and the checkerboard details. I'm very sad that I have to make such a cool car. :(

TÜV / known defects

The MINI currently has no valid HU record. Significant deficiencies were identified in the last main investigation:

* several brake lines corroded * Steering rod left inside joint * Dipped right without function * Front left and right drive shaft cuffs ineffective/damaged * Transmission leaks oil loss with drops

In addition, the clutch shows wear and should probably also be renewed.

The test report will of course be shown during the inspection.

Interesting for R53 lovers

I want to describe the state honestly. The MINI is not a finished TÜV vehicle, but is aimed at someone who can screw himself, has a workshop or specifically seeks an R53 as a project.

For this you get a ready-to-use Cooper S R53 with the 163-PS compressor engine, which is still really fun and looks really super cool.

Sightseeing by arrangement possible. Just serious questions.
