Dash around Town While retaining the unique character of what the brand is renowned for, this addition to the family bridges the gap between the classic Mini and a modern sports activity vehicle. Providing greater freedom and space, Countryman offers a versatile and comfortable ride every time.

Inside the Mini, it’s all about comfort and practicality matched with an innovative style. The Countryman boasts new interior colours, trim strips and upholstery, which enables the customer to create a Mini with a truly unique character. With the perfect amount of space for weekend getaways, the vehicle offers 190 litres more luggage capacity than the original at a total of 350 litres. In addition to the endless interior trim options available, the small SUV includes high-end audio and navigation systems, an extra-large panorama roof and adaptive headlights along with Xenon headlight units. A tow bar, light-alloy wheels ranging in size from 16 to 19 inches, and a wide range of John Cooper Works performance components are offered. Visit the Euromotors showroom in Sitra. Call 17 750-750. Powerful lines and pure dynamics are hallmark M characteristics that are unmistakable in the all-new BMW X6 M. Uncompromised Stealth With the market launch of the model, the combination of sporty elegance of a large BMW coupé with the powerful presence of an X model is raised to a new level. This X6 includes a number of exterior changes, enhancing the athletic appearance of BMW’s original Sports Activity Coupé for the customer’s benefit. A revised front end with a wider chrome frame and revised bars on the large kidney grille and fog lights, set towards the edge of the car, highlight its wide track and stable road-holding. As an alternative to the standard bi-xenon lights, adaptive LED headlights are now available as an option complementing the new front end. At the rear is a revised red light cluster, enhancing the lines of the car with two horizontal LED glowing bars, further emphasising the width of the vehicle. In addition, a raised power dome bonnet appears on the X6 giving the car a more aggressive and sportier look. A host of new colour and trim options are available, including three new metallic paint colours: Marrakech Brown, Orion Silver and Midnight Blue. It also boasts two new upholstery trims: ivory white exclusive Nappa leather and vermillion red Nevada leather. Powered by a V8 Twin Power Turbo engine, the X6M delivers 555hp in addition to receiving styling changes, such as aluminium brake callipers in metallic blue with an M logo. Interior features include the sports seats with electrical adjustment and memory function. Visit the Euromotors showroom in Sitra. Call 17 750-750. BMW
