Factory MINI John Cooper Works R56 – Green 2 Door | GP Seats | No Sunroof | Clean History
Up for sale is my factory MINI John Cooper Works R56 in green. This is a genuine JCW model, not just a Cooper S with a JCW kit. It has the sharper performance, stronger character and classic go-kart feeling that the R56 JCW is known for.
The car has travelled 123,261 km and has a clean history with no bad record. It has also been recently serviced, with logbooks and service history available. Mechanically and cosmetically, it presents well for its age and has been looked after properly.
It is a 2-door hatchback in a great green colour, with no sunroof, which is a nice bonus for anyone who prefers a lighter, cleaner and more driver-focused setup. One of the main highlights is the upgraded MINI GP front seats, giving the interior a much sportier and more special feel compared with a standard R56 MINI.
This car is small, quick, easy to park and genuinely enjoyable to drive. It would suit someone looking for a fun daily, a first performance car, a weekend car, or a MINI enthusiast looking for a clean factory JCW with tasteful upgrades.

Overview
Competing against Audi's A1, Citroen's DS3 and Alfa's Mito, the JCW MINI Cooper punches on with its 155kW/260Nm powerplant. Exterior changes have added almost 100mm to the freshened-up nose (to comply with Euro pedestrian safety regulations), and rearward the new LED brake lights grow brighter as brake pedal pressure increases. New alloy wheel designs come in 15, 16 and 17-inch. Inside, audio controls are now laid out conventionally for more intuitive use. There are auto headlights, foglights, rain sensing wipers and velour floor mats. Underpinnings remain basically the same, for that inspirational MINI ride.
