That is the best looking Countryman I've seen. Maybe it is the BLU White paint job.

 

I went out for a short drive today.

 

Yeah, that's about how far I would get if I tried to leave my driveway....

 

Mine is garaged and never sees the things that mother nature throws down...that's what Audis and Tacoma 4x4s are for.

 

Hahahaha!!!

Love It!

 

Yes you need a bigger shovel....

 

Well, the snowplow went up our street today, I got the whole driveway shoveled, my neighbor got a new (to him) snowthrower and tried it out all over the hood, including clearing out what the snowplow threw up in front of my driveway - in short, I have no more excuses, I have to go to work tomorrow! :incazzato:

 

Mini was outside the last few days in the mountains of Colorado reached -34 degrees I should of taken photos of the temp. gauge. When I started it I could here Tator Tot say are you f*****g kidding me you want to go somewhere, are you sure. And we did, started up no cold start problems, ya gotta love that mini. Great in the snow as well!!

 

This morning went up Berthoud Pass was following a long line of cars till the first turn we I went around probable 15 cars up the first part of Berthoud passed all the cars and never had a problem. I'm sure those Pathfinders and trucks and Audi's were all like where the hell is going. Was about 5 inches of new snow and just cruised, and no I wasn't speeding. Was driving very safe, just total confidence it how this car performs.

 

Dallas is now at 48 degrees, the snow I's melting and it's a beautiful day! More snow tomorrow... Crazy!

 

Wrong thread...

 

My MINI is a daily driver + track + fun car. I wish I had space and $ to pick up some inexpensive transportation as a substitute for bad weather days... something that I wouldn't miss terribly if it were totaled.

 

Fix It Again Tony? $500 you say?

I was thinking more of a Honda Element. Very practical, good gas mileage and regular as a clock. There is something to be said for an automotive appliance... just as there is something to be said for automotive passion and soul.
