A secret compartment of the Mini Cooper

Model: Mini Mini Countryman1, R60 - Years 2010-2016
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see a compartment of our Mini that perhaps not everyone is aware of. We certainly know that by pressing the shiny button on the central console, the storage compartment opens which otherwise remains closed and invisible. But perhaps not everyone knows that next to the air vent, that carbon finish is not fixed. Originally, this was the place dedicated to the CD player, but since this component has become obsolete, this space has become a very useful compartment for storing small objects, and above all, not everyone knows that it exists. To access it, simply press near the vent and it will open.
