    Looks like a lovely car, especially given it's a 2011 car. £4K looks like a very fair price. Just shows how great deals can be had a auction when sellers just don't know how to fix simple issues.

    Bargain i wouldn't sell it without replacing oil feed pipe and mesh to turbo if you say service internals are vague. The last mini my wife had same engine with 80k but full BMW service oil feed pipe was virtually blocked

      Turns out the service history is complete along with a cambelt change

    Can you buy from these site if you aren't a trader?

      You need to register with Manheim and for that you need trade insurance

    Who drives a car with no floor mats, to the point of wearing out the drivers carpet?

      the auction houses remove the mats and put them in the boot - I threw them away because they too were holed.

    good luck selling it, the market is full of them because nobody likes the 1.6

      Mostly because it's a dog.
      1.6 petrol is fine, the 1.6 D2 isn't too bad... but the "1.6D" is a nightmare.
      My 1.6D C30 cost me more in fuel+tax+maintenance than my D5 S80 - despite the fact that S80 was older, owned afterwards, a much heavier car, much bigger and more powerful engine and £250+ more to tax.... That's how much the 1.6D liked to visit the local Volvo indy specialist (who isn't that expensive).
