At what RPM's do you shift?
 

In you manual tranny MINI's?
My shifting experince is with some relatively low revving machines, ie Peterbilt :) ( red line ~ 2k)
And I just wanted to get a feel for where the normal shift points are on MINI's as mine is going to be here is about two weeks

Do it by feel, not by numbers. When you don't need the power, short-shift for economy and less noise/wear/tear. When you do need the power, let it rev.

In the flatness of the city, I usually shift out of first at 2200rpm or so, then about 3000 for the rest of the gears.

In the hills, it's completely different :wink:

1st i shift at 4k, and it gets lower as the gears get higher. No point shifting at 5k in 5th on the street right? :thumbsup:

Maybe I am crazy?
 

I shift at 3k from first to third... then to fifth at 3500 or so... then to 6th when im ready... sometimes i have to go to second from first (when traffic forces me to)... then i go to 4th then 6th from there... doesnt this save wear and tear on the clutch? If im feelin' froggy, i will go from first to second to third without depressing the clutch... but maybe i am just weird...

this is usually how i do it. i feel like a granny :lol: when the urge and urgency come on i get the lead foot syndrome, but never really terribly late

I shift when I need to. Completely depends on the conditions.
