Hey all...recently been saving a bit of money and then realized I have wanted a MINI for decades...and I hate wasting money. I have been reading tons of articles and have been narrowing it down to a few years/models. I have kids so I want 4 doors, I live in upstate NY so I want the ALL4, and I want reliability. SOOOOO, my thoughts...the cheaper 2014 Countryman S ALL 4 if I can get a Manual tranny...but what kind of luck would I have with the the Countryman S ALL4 in the years '15-'19 either tranny...but I would really like to spend less than 20k...or would it be beneficial to jump up a bit and fork out 25k...? Thanks everyone!!!
