VERY handsome! Did you get it at Mini of Bedford? I'm planning to go there for service, as they're closer than where I ordered my car. They just didn't open soon enough!

Same for me...I ordered mine at Mini of Peabody but live about 20 minutes from Mini of Bedford! If I'd waited for Bedford to open, I wouldn't have a car until Christmas!

Thanks guys! Yes, bought it in Bedford. Im glad i didnt order one and found a 2011 leftover! And its exactly what i wanted! Such a fun car, i love it! Its my first Mini!
Bedford was suppose to open in June and got delayed till a couple of weeks ago.
Do you know if the 2012's are alot different? My car has the cold weather package and the premium package.

I could be wrong, but I think the dash and console are a little different. I have a 2012 and (if I recall correctly) the interior of the 2011, the 2012 loses the "columns" and generally simplifies the interface controls.

Mostly cosmetic I believe - I would have been happy with either the 2012 or 2011. Love the green btw, it was our second choice in terms of colors.

I think most of the cosmetic differences were introduced in the 2011 "model refresh". I don't think much changed in 2012 other than some paint choices but I could be mistaken.

In any event, glad to hear you're enjoying your MINI!

Greetings MINI of Bedford! My wife and visited your dealership on it's very first day.

And since I see you here I wonder if you can help me with a tire question??

I have a 2012 MINI Cooper coupe and wondering what is the best size winter tire?

Mine are currently 175/65 R15 and not sure if I can or should go with a different size.

Snow Tires!

I have had my Countryman for 2 months and am definitely in need of a set of snow tires and rims.

What sort of specials are you running right now? I was in last week (for the Mini commercial shoot!) but didn't check out any tires...
