Oh lovely. Man! You’re lucky to have such roads! My Cooper S R56 is shod with brand new Michelin Pilot Sport 4’s. Lovely tyres indeed. Grippy and reassuring in both wet and dry conditions. Mine is an Automatic. So I use the paddle shifters a hell of a lot. A manual would be just something else, for the sheer pleasure of snicking through the gears and driving the curvy mountain roads...in the ideal world there won’t be traffic either.

Mini is also an automatic, i love the paddle shifters!

Hi, I just bought an used 2008 automatic R56 Mini, and I just noticed that it's taking a delay while shifting the gear, actually an unexpected delay, is this normal? Is has 160k and I'll do the inspection tomorrow, it might be the transmission fluid?

[@ProjectMini]

How long does it take to shift?
