Looking for the previous owner of my mini
Hello.
I bought this car 4 month ago from an online Salvage Auction.
2013 Mini Cooper S.
Chili Red.
Manual.
The car is one owner, from The California.
I have some questions about my new car, So maybe the owner is on this forum, or maybe you know him/her.
It would be great if I could get in touch with the previous owner.
Here are Some Pictures of it.
I Can PM a Vin Code, If you need it.
Regards
Beka

If you don't have the title work from the very beginning you can forget trying to know prior owners.
I tried that once before and its more of a headache than you think trying to locate the original owner if title work wasn't forwarded when you got the car. You'd have to start in the state where the car was first titled and most likely try to get a duplicate title from California DMV if it hasn't been retitled yet. However, that still may not give you the very FIRST owner and you'd only end up with the last titled owner shown. It looks like a nice find you got (external damage only), I say jut proceed onward with your plans you have for the car rather than have your curiosity caught up in a history chase, not like its an antique or a rare collectible.

Search the VIn on here, sometimes it pops up or checking the new sections for R56 owners. Other then that finding on the old title
