I won't be taking delivery of my Mini until later this week, so there is still time. The dealership would actually prefer stock wheels to the aftermarket ones, so I will drop the price to $150

With having another Yaris as a 'steadfast backup', and having the mechanical ability you do, that would have been my choice as well. Other than potential reliability issues, LOVE... LOVE... LOVE just about everything about the Countryman ALL4, especially for use in areas with cold winters that get snow on a regular basis.

I have always loved the Minis (both old and new). AWD and 4 doors finally made it a doable vehicle for me. I know that reliability won't be as good as the Yaris, so that's why my blue Yaris will still be my daily driver. I am pulling and selling the supercharger from her so that she can go back to burning cheap gas. The turbo Mini requires high octane and I don't want to have two vehicles that do.
