I'm a former autocrosser and lifelong car-lover. I don't know why it's taken me so long to get my first Mini, but it happened last week on a whim. I was looking for a Golf R or Alltrack but couldn't find anything decent, and just happened to search for a British Racing Green Mini Countryman S ALL4 with adaptive cruise control under $20K anywhere in the country.. happened to find one locally that had just come in with nearly a perfect feature set, being fully loaded minus leather. Loving it so far, except for the lack of Android Auto and lumbar adjustment (wtf?). It's the one car I've ever had out of 90's Hondas, 2008-2020 Subarus, MK7/MK8 GTIs, that my spouse actually likes as much or more than I do, which is great.

First mods were this ATech phone mount that I haven't seen mentioned much and works great: https://www.atachmounts.com/Mini-Coo...nt_p_1924.html
Next was Vredestein Wintrac Pro snow tires just in time for the first snow of the season.
I'll probably throw a light tune on it soon.
I'm also very interested in swapping the manual seats for power seats if I can ever find any detailed directions on wiring and coding requirements.

 

Welcome, nice shots!

Android Auto not so much as BMW group is fully onboard with Apple.
