in this video I go over what you need to be careful of and why the mini cooper s R53 are going very cheap now and can be had for very little money due to the fact they are all approaching that 100K dreaded service which for some wanting this car and dont have the knowledge or skills can take a whole months wage just to cover to make sure this car lives on

now the Mini Cooper s r53 is a great car and sure to be one of the greatest classic minis of all time with its power handling and being lightweight really changes the game of this car it can still put alot of cars to shame today

but there is alot to know when buying these cars and there only getting older and the older they get the more prone to failures and rust which is a big issue on this generation of cars
