This 2004 Mini Cooper S MC40 is powered by a supercharged 1.6-liter inline-four fitted with a John Cooper Works tuning kit and paired with a six-speed manual transaxle. The car is #406 of 1,000 examples produced to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Mini's 1964 Monte Carlo Rally victory and is finished in Chili Red with Rallye Monte Carlo decals over red and black leather. The package also added Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), two-piece wheels, xenon headlights, driving lamps, a carbon fiber-trimmed dash, chrome trim, and a commemorative plaque. The car was registered in Texas through 2014 and spent time in Oklahoma and Florida before it was acquired by the Wisconsin-based selling dealer in January 2021, who subsequently repaired the door locks and replaced the exterior decals, front brake rotors and pads, struts, right-front CV axle, oil cooler, and oil. This Cooper S MC40 indicates just 101k miles and is offered at no reserve with a window sticker, a John Cooper Works Certificate of Authenticity, a service manual, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean Florida title.
All MC40 editions were finished in Chili Red (851) with a white roof as a tribute to driver Paddy Hopkirk, and "MC40," "33 EJB", and "GB" decals on the hood and quarter panels were also included. The JCW tuning kit added a John Cooper Works badge to the rear. Additional exterior equipment includes a front tow hook, a John Cooper Works-badged lower grille insert, xenon headlights with washers, driving lamps, chrome mirror caps, a roof spoiler, and central dual exhaust outlets. The seller states the decals were replaced in preparation for sale.
Two-piece anthracite-finished 17″ wheels are wrapped in 205/45 Yokohama YK740 GTX tires that show date codes from 2016. The car is equipped with Dynamic Stability Control, and the selling dealer replaced the right-front CV axle, all four struts, and the front brake rotors and pads in preparation for sale.
The cabin features seats upholstered in MC40-specific red and black leather as well as a carbon-fiber-trimmed John Cooper Works-branded dash, an MC40 shift knob, and a commemorative plaque mounted in the center console. Equipment includes power windows and locks, air conditioning, a climate-controlled glove compartment, and a factory CD stereo.
The leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel frames a tachometer, while a 150-mph speedometer is centrally-mounted with integrated coolant temperature and fuel level gauges. Oil temperature and voltage gauges are fitted at the bottom of the center stack. The digital odometer indicates under 101k miles, approximately 50 of which were added by the dealer.
The supercharged and intercooled 1.6-liter inline-four is fitted with a John Cooper Works tuning kit that was installed by BMW of Arlington in September 2005 and was factory-rated for 210 horsepower. The kit modified the ECU map and upgraded the cylinder head, supercharger, fuel injectors, spark plugs, and air intake. Also included were a cat-back exhaust and an intercooler cover. The selling dealer reports replacing the oil cooler and changing the oil in January 2021.
The John Cooper Works Mini Cooper S Tuning Kit Certificate of Authenticity lists a serial number of S9481, and shows that it was installed on September 14, 2005 with a mileage reading of 10,455. A window sticker and service manual are also included in the sale.
Power is delivered to the front wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery below.
The Carfax report lists no accidents or damage, shows an October 2015 entry for an open power steering recall, and displays registration history in Texas, Oklahoma, and Florida.
