'Having leased my previous car with 1st Choice Vehicle Finance I had no hesitation in comming straight back to them to supply my new Mercedes - which I am thrilled with. Once again they were excellent from start to finish, the customer service is second to none. A real pleasure to deal with - thanks again'.

B Aldridge, Bracknell

Filed under: Geneva Motor Show, Crossover, Mini, UK, Off-Road Mini Countryman - Click above for high-res image gallery The new Mini Countryman crossover won't make it's official debut until next month's Geneva Motor Show, but we now know that the largest Mini will be priced from £16,000 for the base One model when it hits UK streets this September (that's $25,062 for us Yankees, although direct currency conversions should be taken with a grain of salt). In the United States, it's likely that only the Cooper and Cooper S Countryman models will be offered, with the naturally aspirated Cooper priced from £17,510 ($27,426) and the turbocharged S from £20,810 ($32,593). Both models will use an all-new 1.6-liter four, developing 122 horsepower and 118 pound-feet of torque in the Cooper, or 184 hp and 177 lb-ft in the Cooper S. Additionally, the diesel-powered One D and Cooper D models will be offered in other markets, retailing for £17,000 ($26,625) and £18,810 ($29,460), respectively. What's more, Cooper S and Cooper D Countryman will be available with Mini's new ALL4 all-wheel drive system, which adds £1,065 ($1,668) to the price of the D and £1,220 ($1,911) to the S. That means a Cooper S Countryman with ALL4 might retail for as high as $34,540 in the U.S., which could be a lofty sum for the small crossover (thought we'll wait until final U.S. pricing has been released before we jump to any conclusions). Still, there's no doubt that the Countryman will be an interesting and surprisingly functional vehicle when it hits the streets later this year, and we doubt that Mini will have too much trouble moving them off of dealer lots. Mini's full press release is available after the jump.

Filed under: Aftermarket, Performance, Europe, Hatchback, Honda, UK Honda Civic Type-R Mugen - Click above for high-res image gallery When Mugen's UK-based tuning arm turned up the wick on the Euro Civic Type-R late last year, the result was a 220-hp, stripped out hatch that was only available to 20 lucky consumers. Riding on the critical success of that limited-edition model, Honda UK will begin offering another Mugen-fettled Civic Type-R this March, but it's decidedly less impressive than its track-worthy predecessor. Included in the package is a set of front and rear Mugen bumper skirts, lightweight 19-inch wheels, limited slip differential and a Championship White exterior, the last Type-R to receive the storied hue. Unfortunately, no mods have been performed to the engine, exhaust or ECU, so output remains unchanged at 200 horsepower. Naturally, an assortment of badges and plaques are included on the 200 limited-edition models, which are being released to celebrate Honda's return to the British Touring Car Championship this April. Make the jump for all the details, along with ordering information... assuming you live across the pond.

1st Choice's service from start to finish has been excellent; communication between all parties involved was dealt with promptly and efficiently.

My VW is superb and was delivered ahead of schedule.

Thank you for making this an easy process and providing the car at such a great price; I have already recommended you to a client.
