New to the Mini world

Buying my first Mini. Wanted something with all wheel drive for a winter car up here in frozen (or soon to be) northern Vermont. Will put the summer fling car up for the winter.
I will be buying a 2017 Clubman S ALL4. Drove a lot of cars and was pretty much set on a Subaru WRX until I sat and drove the Clubman. Its fit and finish are just so much better than the Subaru and since, as I understand it, this car has both a BMW X1 chassis and engine, I am not far from my usual brand up to now.
These are truly first world problems when you have two cars for the different seasons.

Congrats, I felt the same thing the MINI interior has really improved in quality over most other makes. Post up some pics when you get it.
