Countryman in USA assembled/built where?
Does 2013 & 2014 Countryman in USA are built in Austria, India or Thailand? I saw this on the internet that says
" Unlike the normal Mini range, the Countryman is not manufactured in Oxford, but in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graz, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austria by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magna_Steyr, making it the first of the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW era Minis to be manufactured entirely outside the UK.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini_Countryman#cite_note-5From April 2013 the Countryman is also assembled at BMW's plant near Chennai, India and at the BMW Manufacturing Thailand plant in Rayong from August 2013 In Malaysia, the factory BMW to launch the Mini Countryman and S series Inokom Corporation plant in Kulim, Kedah in early 2013."
thanks.

Steyr has been around building BMW's for a while. According to Automotive News Europe, Paceman and Countryman production will move to Oxford in 2016.
