Made an offer on an 06 Hyper Blue Cooper S vert with 98,000kms on the clock. It's a stunner. Just doing the finance paperwork now. Car drives brilliantly and is exceptionally smooth. My wife might just be getting an M3 :roflol:

Congrats man,one step closer to that MINI!!
My finance was approved on the Cooper S vert I drove the other night,my missus is well excited about it. Hopefully collecting today.
As far as your search is concerned, try Gumtree as well,lots on there. But your website choices are vast!!
I saw a couple of clean ones during my search. Good luck!

Guys,

Other than Gumtree, Autotrader and Junkmail
All the other ones (surf4cars, bid or buy, cars.co.za, etc etc) seem to have the same adverts as if they're all linked...

i know here in PTA there's an "car market" every sunday at Menlyn Retail called "autofair" with a website www.autofair.co.za where that week's cars are advertised for a week....

Are there ANY other sites like this that anybody knows of?

I spend too much time on car websites. If I spent as much time focusing on work I would probably be a lot more successful! :roflol:

Yup,I did a top to toe detail on the car yesterday Cooper. Thoroughly enjoyed it to,and was a helluva lot easier than doing my car!

I picked up a couple of nicks here and there,but understandable for the age of the car. My wife was tickled cos I used all the "special" cleaning stuff and all the techniques I use on my car (which is a 6 hour job on its own!).

The colour is similar,my car is Interlagos Blue. When the cars are together you can see how different they are. It really is a stunning little car though.

Came out well.

What products and procedures did you use?

I'm sure it must feel like a toy compared to the M3 lol
