Talking 500miles in one day!
Finally got my Countryman Cooper S All4 on friday...
And after 500miles behind the wheels on saturday, I have to say it was way better than I had ever dreamed about!
It was almost as comfortable on long trips as my old -08 Volvo V70 2,4D.
But a h#ll of a lot more fun!

Took it for a 400mile trip over one of our beautiful mountain passes.
Got every type of roads from high speed highway, to narrow mountain road whit snow!

Attached is some pictures from the trip, and a video.

Thanx... Not a fisheye, but a 8-16mm Sigma DC @ 8mm.
Grate lens for car portraits!

Not to state what has already been expressed, but that first shot is incredible.
