MINI Cooper Plane Car Goes Up for Sale
MINI of San Antonio | San Antonio, TX
Who needs an airplane when you could have this MINI? Strangely, this 2004 MINI Cooper went up for sale online recently, sporting parts of an airplane. The team here at MINI of San Antonio loves it, so we thought we would share it with you.
The downside: it doesn't actually fly. We know, it's sad. But you could still own it and look cool. Unfortunately, this MINI can no longer be purchased, but it's still worth sharing, don't you think?
It's got 50,777 miles on it and a 1.6-liter engine under the hood that produces 115 horsepower. Not exactly the kind of power it needs to take off the runway, but for a MINI car that's pretty darn cool. It has the legendary go-kart stance, exceptional handling and fuel efficiency that every MINI fan is accustomed to.
