MK II 120 or 115 ZS Hatchback, **CHEAP**
I hate BMW Hello Friends, loved ones, and partners in Crime!
My wife was daft enough to want a BMW Mini, and despite being driven sensibly, and serviced at MINI whenever needed, at just 52000 miles, the gearbox has gone bang.
out of warranty MINI want 2450 pounds, so I am getting it fixed, then selling it. In it's place, she would like a ZR or ZS, and I am trying to sway her towards a ZS. She would like either a 120, or a 115 and prefers the MK II.
Any offers considered, or for a nice (Preferably black) ZR

Mini's are notorious for that. The early ones had a different gearbox to the later ones and are much softer. If it's a pain to get into reverse sometimes then it's an early one.

^^^a fantastic site if you need some mini advice, just say I sent you. Handy place for when you come to sell it too
you tried autotrader mate? Normally a good few on there

sounds like a cunning plan....and you can always haggle the price, especially if you don't have a trade-in
