After many years of brilliant service and some brilliant memories of trips all over Ireland UK and Europe we have sold Our Countryman Cooper S . its staying in Cork however and is in good hands with a long time MINI owner who I know will continue to look after it. the car has been totally reliable and has confirmed to Me ( if I ever needed confirmation ) that if you adhere to 7000 km oil / filter changes MINIs will not suffer the problems many find with the 'Prince' engined cars . anyway things move on and replacement MINI is on the way .
