Hello from Maryville, TN

I just became the owner of DB, a midnight blue 2013 Countryman S. Still learning about this car, and more than a bit intimidated by the new "family" of MINI owners I seemed to have married into. I have many questions and great plans for DB. Hope y'all can help.
BTW, Maryville is 20 miles south of Knoxville in the foothills of the Smokey Mountains, and in the same county as the TN end of The Dragon. Y'all come see us sometime.

Hi Holy, welcome to NAM and the world of MINI motoring! Being from Illinois I know the area well and once visited Oak Ridge. Any questions please ask, we've been doing this since 1974. Let us know of your motoring adventures.

Drive Hard. Drive Safe. Keep Grinning.

Hello from the state where the original DB Cooper performed his magic trick.
Happy motoring and Welcome to NAM!

Congrats, yes you are very close. What mods do you have planed and are you going to tint the windows? Most Countryman / Paceman owners do to make the B, C, and D black pillars blend.

You're just a few minutes from us. Feel free to drive up to Knoxville (the massive 13 minute drive will be worth it). We've got thousands of MINI parts in stock and have a showroom full of goodies.

I have a set of stock 17" S Lites but no tires. I've also got a full set of JCW Challenge Wheels in black with run flat all season tires available.
