Just joined the forum to consdier our options when we move back to the US this year after nearly 4 years in Switzerland. Sadly, we'll have to give us our Europe spec'd MC S.

You can see a photo attached, with tandem bicycle mounted in back (split into two halves for transporting). It shows rather well, the compact size of the Mini, don't you think? Since we are outdoor oriented and enjoy taking toys along (bikes, etc.), we may consider upsizing to the Clubman or Countryman, or just getting a Coupe with a hitch rack. We did enjoy the small size of the Coupe for the narrow European parking garages though!

 

Welcome!

 

Welcome back to the USA, can't bring the MINI? bummer oh well you can get a replacement when you get here, change is always fun.
