"New" 2014 Countryman

New to the Mini world. Just bought a 2014 Countryman S with only 5k miles on it. Anything I should be aware of with it? Love it so far.

Welcome and congrats. Search the Countryman forum and you'll see lots of things that folks have had go wrong. Same things usually. I, myself, have been lucky (knock on wood) to have had very little trouble with the 2012 Countryman I bought used in 2015 w/25000 mi. Clutch went after owning the car for 4 days. Previous Owner must have been a terrible manual driver. However, early clutch failure problems (manual transmission) have been well documented.

Happy Motoring!

Thanks Rich. Mine is an auto, 8 leg surgeries and counting, so no manual as much as I'd love one. Can always play with my wife's Wrangler for that.
