This 2012 MINI Cooper S Roadster (R59) delivers the best of the open-top MINI experience with a serious performance edge. Power comes from the N18 turbocharged 1.6-liter paired to a 6-speed manual, and this example has been thoughtfully upgraded to sharpen response, cooling, and reliability—ideal for spirited canyon drives, weekend events, or the occasional track session.
Performance hardware includes a JMC 45mm turbocharger, AEM water/methanol injection, AEM cold-air intake, Sprint Booster throttle controller, upgraded ignition coils, NV oil catch can, and a full Forge valve kit for the N18. An AR Design 3-inch downpipe with a high-flow catalytic converter improves flow and gives the Roadster a deeper voice without going overboard. To sustain performance, the car benefits from aftermarket oil lines, an upgraded radiator, and a stainless-steel overflow tank. A 5-gallon trunk-mounted reservoir adds support for extended sessions.
About JCW: MINI produced a factory John Cooper Works (JCW) Roadster on this same R59 platform (2012–2015), featuring factory power and chassis upgrades. Based on the current records and equipment, this car presents as a Cooper S that has been performance-built in the spirit of JCW via high-quality aftermarket components and careful stewardship. If desired, buyers can verify factory configuration via VIN/build sheet; the sale includes a binder of service and modification records from 2012 to present, plus the original window sticker.
Documented, dialed-in, and enthusiast-owned, this MINI Roadster offers the engaging feel of a driver-focused build with the peace of mind that comes from comprehensive records.
