Yes, but how many German Shepherds can it carry?

Paul · #3 (**permalink**) Jan 21st, 2010, 06:35 AM

Didn't get that stat.

What towing capacity does it have?

Paul · #5 (**permalink**) Feb 26th, 2010, 07:02 PM

I'll have to put these down and find the right person to ask at Geneva on Tuesday.

70 to 80 pounds average on the German Shepherds if that helps.

Anyone know whether any dealers actually have a Countryman to have a look at yet please?

No they don't...There was a special 'sneak peek' last week in my local Scotthall in Watford which I signed up for, but then managed to show up a day late...D'OH! My brother-in-law saw a mock-up of one in the Westfield Centre in London, so maybe there are more about...

We were invited to the peek at Scotthalls too but couldnt get down there!

When is the actual release date? Really can't wait to see it in the flesh!

Going to save up for one-hopefully to get an auto diesel model ex-demonstrator if possible!

It's either that or a scirocco!!!!

Wish Mini would hurry up and at least release some proper details etc as I have no patience!!!

The Countryman is on the MINI UK Configurator.

Thanks-just configured three options!! No auto diesel though!

From the little maple leaf flag above the post, I'm guessing zoebis is in Canada - in which case any British towing capacity is not relevant.

Towing practices, speeds and trailer loading habits are very different between Europe and North America and capacities from one continent should not be used on the other.
