2020 MINI JCW Countryman (Clyde) - My 9K Mile Daily Driver Recap (SUPER LONG!!!)
6Warning: over 17min video ;) I ordered my custom 2020 MINI JCW Countryman back in late August 2019 and received him around late October 2019.
My previous car was a 2013 MINI Cooper S Coupe (R58), Bonnie. I was around 70K miles on her and my extended warranty had just expired. My life also was changing as my parents were getting older and I in turn needed the ability to drive them to various appts, places.
However, I did not want a boring car. I still wanted a fun CUV that could fit four full sized adults for 2+ hour trips comfortably while at the same time when I was driving alone would have fun, smile each day I drive it.
This is my SUPER LONG (Over 17mins) recap of how my Clyde has fared as a daily driver in Minnesota.
