a refresh for 2012 that will be available starting in November. However, Mini must have thought the exterior was perfect because all of the changes happen inside. 

Mini has redesigned the interior trim with Carbon Black gloss rings around the center speedometer and the four air vents. Chrome rings are optional. The door inserts have been reshaped to be more supportive to passengers' arms, and Mini has moved the window controls to the doors; they used to be on the center console.   In their place on the center console, Mini has added a new storage compartment. For the rear, Mini is offering two seat options, which are both no-cost options. Buyers can either opt for a bench seat for three people or individual seats for two people. 

The only exterior changes are the addition of two new exterior colors: Brilliant Copper metallic and Blazing Red metallic.

The engine variants remain the same for the refreshed car. There are three petrol and three diesel engines with power between 90hp and 184hp. The top version is the John Cooper Works CountrymanMINI (BMW) Countryman Joh...Germany, 2012 > present3 photos
