    Hello everyone my name is Nathan and I am from the Saginaw area of Michigan and I am looking @ buying a lightly modded 2003 S. I have a couple questions that I am hoping you guys can answer. So, here it goes....first question: is there anything that I should be looking out for when I go and look at it? #2 does anyone know if my vag-com would work to pull the codes? Being that I am normally an Audi guy and have a vag-com I would like to be able to pull the codes when I go to look at it. The seller says it is throwing a CEL light due to a high flow exhaust. I just want to know for sure. #3 And lastly what is a far price for a 2003 with 100k, exhaust, 17% pulley, tune, header, and short throw shifter?

    Sorry for the length but I am new to Minis and trying to cover my bases. Any information would be great.

    Thanks,
    Nathan

    Thanks I will hit him up. I assume he is on here too? Are there any major red flags that I should look for?

    Welcome, thanks for joining Motoring Alliance, the FUN and Friendly MINI Community.

    Detroit Tuned is a sponsor of Motoring Alliance and they rebuilt my engine last winter. Very trustworthy shop.
