    About to buy an '04 Mini Cooper S, what to look for? Any advice?

    Hello, i'm pretty new to the forum, to Mini's and to BMW in general.

    I found an 04 Mini S w/ 35k miles in Clifton, NJ. Seems like the owner didn't really care about the car much, or just has no clue on how to drive. Car has scratches all over the body, windshield is cracked, door lock doesn't work and the amp is blown. We agreed on $9000 to offset the $1500 or so for painting it and windshield issue, which seems to be a decent price.

    Are there any common issues or things to look out for when inspecting/buying a Mini Cooper S in the 2004 Model year?

    If any of you guys are from the area and could take a look at the car i'd highly appreciate that and awarded with a small BMW gift to compensate your time.
