will there be clowns and acrobats to accompany this six foot mini? (insert carny music here)

 

[Mike1]

I will psot up pics tomorrow of the Countryman parked next to the new X1...

They the same size.... :excited:

 

[moranor@axis]

lol well least is 4wd and not Fwd they got one thing right

 

[Cooper]

Mike will the event be taking place at Auto Atlantic?

 

[Mike1]

You can spec whether you want 4WD or FWD. Its a R20 000 odd optional extra.

It isnt at the Dealership no. It will be at a Boutique Hotel called Upper East Side in Woodstock.

More details will be available closer to the time.

R20 000 im guessing most will go for the cheap option like they do with audi...
people dont seem to realize how much better it is until you force them to have it look at subaru you wont find anyone who says they not happy with the way it drives...

 

[Mike1]

I do believe MINI uses the Xdrive system too. Must check that....

 

[Willy]

Yip it does mike.

And R20000 might be worth it, as the base model is realy not that expensive for what you get. Can't wait to have a go in one.

 

[Mike1]

The Base Cooper will start at R280 000. The Cooper S will start at R350 000 and the All4 Cooper S will be R385 000.

Muchos worth it me thinks.

 

[Willy]

See and for us now looking at buying a X1 this might be a good option.

A normal Cooper Countryman, in auto and with leather seats. is allot cheaper than the "same spec" X1.

Awaiting your comparitive photo.

And then I just have to sway the bosses vote.

 

[Mike1]

Pics are up already. :spit:

 

[moranor@axis]

All4 Cooper S :thinking: is this the Countryman Cooper S or the normal mini? if they made the normal mini 4wd it would be awesome

i think audis priceing for 4wd is very similar but you hardly ever see one with 4wd unless its standard

---

i think the mini will hold value better that should sway your boss
