Hi from the Middle East

Just bought a 2011 Countryman S ALL4 and found this group after a search on google.

Currently living in Bahrain.

Thoroughly enjoying it. Our other car is a GMC Acadia, so jumping into this is a quantum leap in fun!

I'll get out tomorrow and get a few pics. I'm not a great photographer though

My mini experiences started waaaaay back in about 1966 or 67 when my parents had a wee blue one. We went all over the UK in it for a few years. Will see if I can get some old photos of us with that car from my mum.
