How I sold my S-Lites on Ebay

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...93&postcount=1

Sold on Ebay for $280 (the reserve price) + $115 shipping.

FWIW, I'm pretty sure my buyer wasn't a MINIac.
I sold them by targeting other cars that these wheels could fit:

Fits All MINIs: 2002 thu 2006 Cooper, Cooper S, Hard Top and Convertible.
4/100 mm bolt pattern also fits
Mazda Miata
Honda Civic
Nissan Sentra
Mitsubishi Mirage
Toyota Corolla & Prius
Acura Integra with 4-lug
VW - All 4-lug VWs
BMW 2002, E21, E30
Daewoo Lanos & Nubira
Ford Escort
Scion Xa & Xb
Saturn S-Series
and many more cars.

Sizing research on buyer's vehicle is buyer's responsibility:

That is a good idea.. Did you consider the hub bore? Some of those cars have the same bolt pattern but a larger hub bore. Thus, the wheels would not fit...

Just something to consider..

Yep -- I considered it, and I made sure it wasn't my problem:

"Sizing research on buyer's vehicle is buyer's responsibility"
with three sample links.

I'm a MINI freak.
Can I really be bothered to find out if my poorly-chosen S-Lites fit your Ford Escort?
