I believe it was a dealer add-on and could also be purchased after sale so could of been added any time after it was registered.

Its probably a cooper S with JCW dealer pack fitted. If its a genuine works car it would have red brake calipers, red numbers on gearknob, bigger air box, different exhaust, full aero bodykit  to name a few.

Its about a £1400 option i think that you can have fitted at any time, i believe its JCW embossed air box, JCW engraved exhaust tips but its the full rear section and a flash on the ECU and there's a sticker in the side of it to prove.

That's true!  I did have a preview before the auction as I live within half an hour or so and I saw the Mini (same colour, same age) and thought some poor sod has bought that completely unaware that it is absolutely hanging.

That one (above) looks well though
