Hello all, about to be a new MINI owner!

My wife and I are looking to buy a 2017 Countryman S All4, 6spd manual. Looks to be fully optioned, big Nav, HUD, Oak diamond stitched interior, pwr seats, etc. Island Blue, 39k miles off-lease return.

Big question is what to look for reliably wise? What to pay attention to on the PPI? Buying from a large MINI dealer.

This will be my wife’s primary car, replacing a 3 row SUV. I do most all our vehicle maintenance, and we tend to keep vehicles for 150k+ miles.

Cheers,
Steve

 

Well, deal is done and this will be entering our garage!

Both my wife and I are real excited, and looking forward to customizing it. I am pretty much set on a Dinan Elite and CravenSpeed shifter pretty soon. My wife wants the M7 2.5 lift kit of all things!

Where is the best place to find DYI for regular maintenance tasks (oil changes, cabin filter, etc.)?

 

Congrats, beautiful CM!

Can't answer your questions since I'm new here as well.

 

Congratulations!

Awesome, thank you!

 

Congrats! ECS Tuning carries a lot of maintenance items.

 

Enjoy! Congrats! Nice choice in transmission!!

 

Nice ride! I'm about to return my 17 CM S All 4. Any chance you're looking for a Dinan Elite to put in your new ride? I gotta sell mine.

 

I"ll take the tuner. Was planning to buy one this weekend.

 

PM sent!

 

Now that BMW decided to charge us to access BMWtis, are there any printed shop manuals one could buy? Any other options? It looks like Pelican may not start the DIY guides for the F60...

 

None yet, people use the forums here as a guide. More information.
