Opinions on this JCW

Alrightyy bois! Back with another one.

What do you think about this 2019 MINI JCW? Googled the VIN and looks like it was auctioned at one point although no details. Waiting on a CarFax from the dealer. If it has service record history and no accidents, should i pull the trigger on this one?

It’s priced at CAD $27k + taxes with about 80k kms on the clock. Overpriced or na?

See the last pic for annoying BS that gotta go!

Should I buy this JCW?

Alright bois, opinion time.

Have been looking for a Cooper S or a JCW for a minute. Currently eyeing this MINI.

It is a ‘22 Mini JCW, with 48 KMs on the clock. The dealership is willing to let it go for $37.5K CAD out the door. I understand it’s a bit overpriced but am I getting blindly ripped off? Should i go ahead with the purchase or pass?

Any suggestions or insights are greatly appreciated.

Edit - Wow, just woke up found this got some traction. Sorry I am not replying to each comment. But, thank you for all the comments and suggestions. Looks like I will not be moving forward with the purchase as this turned out to be just a ricer😂 that’s overpriced for whatever it is.

Thank you all again. If I find anything else worth buying, I’d make a post again.

Need help identifying

2022 Mini Cooper JCW for sale has this instrument cluster. Can anyone help me understand why its analog when they switched over to digital cluster in LCI2?

Additionally, what’s the significance of that signature if anyone knows!? Thank you!!

Looking to Buy 2014 Mini Cooper S

Basically the title.

Have been in the market for a minute looking to buy Mini with B48 engine. Missed on 2 deals but I saw Cooper S for sale for 11k CAD on fb marketplace.

Everything looks good as the guy has owned the car for 10 years. The engine was replaced under warranty at the dealership due to bearing failure at 30k. The new engine has 100K on it.

The only iffy part I feel is that the guy has a custom tune on the car. The following is the info I have:

He says he's got a custom remap, a downpipe. 3" exhaust and full intake. The boost peaks around 21 and levels around at 18. The turbo is stock, spark plugs and intercooler have not been upgraded.

Can anyone guide me as to what questions should i ask? What should I look for, as i have no experience with boosted engines.

Also, is it worth it? Additional mods include poly motor mounts, braced subframe, shock tower mounts etc, lowering springs, wheels etc.

Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
