Is that Vancouver Canada, or USA?


If Canada, I'm curious if there are any differences between the US and Canadian models.

Welcome to FUN motoring!

In my opinion the manual is the only way to go

Welcome 43MA - The MINI seems pretty forgiving to a person new to shifting ... I've taught (2) of my sons how to drive with this car.
