Pup X5 is on a distinguished road
New car yesterday

Not an X5 but...we traded my wife's 2011 triple black Mini Countryman Cooper s All4 for a 2015 Mini Cooper S hardtop, 4 Door.. Blazing Red Metallic ,white roof and mirrors, Cold Weather pkg, Sport pkg, black leather. This is the new 2.0 liter turbo. This is the 2.0 L motor that BMW has used in the 3 k 5 series for a few years now...

What a blast! I call it her lil rocket.. It,s our 5th Mini!

We started with a 1969 Mini Cooper that I restored and won lots of shows with.. It was even featured in Mini World magazine....

Next was a 2003 Mini Cooper , 2004 Mini Cooper S, ( oem supercharged), a 2011 Mini Countryman S turbo All 4.

The 2015 is much more refined and really quick.. Turbo kicks right out of the hole at 1000 rpms, pulls very strong and fast all the way to redline..

The paint quality, fit and finish is what I would expect from a much more expensive car... The red makes my Imola X5 look pale and muddy in comparison...

I'll post pix later. But, wanted to share our good news with all.

Nice! I was at the Mini dealer the other day and checked out the Countryman. The awd and manual is pretty attractive. They had a fully speced awd JCW Countryman S with a manual on the showroom floor. It looked pretty sweet aside from the 54k price tag.

YUM! I've always drooled over the Mini's, but then, who wouldn't, after ''The Italian Job''! Sounds like you have a beautiful car! Congrats...
