I'm waiting for 2012 line-up brcause I'm seriously looking at the roadster. It is a sweet Mini:beeropcorn:

 

I have gone to MINIUSA a couple of times and it talks about the Countryman, but you can not build one. It says it will hit our shores and be in show rooms in January, so I take it you can't order one until then? If that is the case then it is misleading to say it was released in September. :cryin:

Jim, they might be talking about the EU release date. That tends to happen. That way if there are any bugs, it gives them a little time for a fix before it hits the US market. Kind of a controlled release.

 

Got ya, but I thought it had already been released over there. At any rate, it is driving my wife crazy, because she whats one of them badly. Already got color and mods planned. Mine is going to look like the baby sister sitting next to it.

Lucky you....
So is it going to be a Justa or an "S", this time around?:devil:

 

An "S" of course. She said I did not need one, but this is different, because she needs the AWD and that only comes in the "S" it seems. :nonod:

My mistake. I thought it had already been released there and the September date was here.

Thanks,

Jim

 

One of my local dealers said they go through 'training' in November on the R60 for it's January release.

 

Someone (perhaps Tim) said that they got a discount coupon at MTTS for a Countryman, but they had to take delivery by January. Could that have been intended to sell the ones the dealers get, rather then ordering one?
