Hello! New to the site

I just picked up my first MINI last week. It's a 2011 Countryman automatic with 68,000 on it. It's in mint condition on and out. I'd love to know what I should look out for with the year and mileage.

also, I'm not sure how to change my username. It went to my email for some reason.

thanks!

Welcome! Check out the Countryman forum for model specific information, and also the Gen2 forum for more information on the engine. Lots of information here.

Last year I had a Countryman for a loaner while my R56 was in for service, I really liked it.

Welcome to NAM.

I usually tell new members about how much information is here based upon the threads, the members and the vendors, but, others here have learned that using your email address as you member name is not the best idea due to the spam and scan people out there.
