MINI COUNTRYMAN

INTRODUCTION

Mini is a reputed brand internationally and has quite an amazing history on its account in terms of its accomplishments. Most importantly, it has been a part of the automobile history as a whole. The vehicles from the brand are not just random cars released by a yesteryear success, these are what one might call a design excellence back when they were launched. So, when such a brand shifted places along the years and its current home, BMW did quite a lot in terms of reviving the brand without affecting the quality and the true DNA of MINI.
Mini Countryman is the first car launched by BMW under its newly owned MINI marque. Plus, in terms of design innovation, the Mini Countryman has quite a lot to look forward to. The car is the first crossover SUV and the vehicle has a higher ground clearance and longer wheel base. Mini has finally launched the new Countryman that comes with some design updates and new features and tech as well.

Things to keep in mind before Buying Mini Countryman

 

When buying a new car in general one must look for things like body panels that are out of line, or load bearing beams that seem to have been damaged. The next thing to check whether the paint is original or it has been repainted, a quick check under concealed plastic panels is a great way to check for unmatched paint. Another thing to check for is underbody rust in humid or sea adjacent areas.

A good way to check if the car has been rear-ended is by checking the boot. Flip open the spare wheel cover and remove the wheel completely. If the car was repaired after an accident the floor will have visible signs as the surface wouldn’t be smooth as it would in an undamaged car.

In the end, always remember to check for complete documentation including service records. Also, do check with the insurance company for any past claims, which will make you aware of the accidents the car has been involved in. Last but not the least, get the car checked from a trusted workshop before closing the deal.
