Sharp eyes! The car was delivered with the 18" R127 wheels ("5-star, double spoke composites" according to mini.ca). I also got the 19" R129 JCW wheels (pictures below).

Thanks for posting Mojito! That's what I wanted to do originally, especially since red is a JCW colour, but in the end I wanted to do something a little different...

Vive le Youification!

New Black CM in OKC
I just submitted my order for a black All4 with white lid and black 18" wheels. Anybody have photoshop skills to take these existing pictures on this thread and color the lid white and make the stripes a brown or copper color? Thanks, and I look forward to being an active member. Keep the rubber side down.

I honestly can't get enough of your car. Perhaps it's that my favorite color is blue, my MINI was black, and i'm really liking the size of the Countryman as opposed to my current car.
