    First off welcome!

    Second I think the question is 'To Country(man) or not to Country(man)' as the hardtop or the Clubman do not have a all wheel offering

    A frontwheel drive hardtop/clubman with good snow tires or meaty all seasons can deal with snow but you say 'snow country' so I'm a little reluctant to say hardtop/clubman

    Good Luck

    Welcome aboard. It sounds to me like the 4X4 Countryman is just what you are looking for. :Thumbsup:

    Righto! My main concern in the mountains near Yosemite is ground clearance. I suppose some type of air up or down suspension could be made or bought?

    Our place is in Twain Harte, and I work all week in the Peninsula.
    Did I see that your MINI has a Cosworth power plant? One of my best friends had a new white Cosworth Vega he brought to Anchorage, Alaska, and everyone wanted to race him!(1975)

    Yea my car has a Cosworth BV head. I dare to say that there is no comparison to a Cosworth Vega though :lol: Our club is going to be in Sonora on Saturday, we will be eating lunch at the Peppery. Should be about 20 cars :cornut:

    Bummer you missed us :( We had 19 cars at the Peppery, they gave us first class service, her name was Crystal, she did an amazing job :Thumbsup: Most of us then went over to Columbia for some ice-cream and just hung out. It was a great run :cornut:

    Here is a pic with 20 cars, we lost one before Sonora :lol:
