Pleased with how everything turned out- although I have to run it backwards for access to the hatch w/ the bike loaded everything fits well.

Yakima copperhead on a Mont Blanc rack on a 2006 MINI Cooper S John Cooper works.

Comically it doubles the size of my car. haha

So is there a reason for mounting the bike backwards? Does the tray hit the hatch mounted the other way around?

yeah it does unfortunately.

Most of the MINI owners I've seen have them flipped, I presumed this would be fine to do?

Maybe I'll give Yakima a ring tomorrow morning just to make sure. Just don't have enough length on the roof. :D

Fat Bob- my apologies, I was accidentally logged in when I initially posted this with a name I registered with awhile ago and forgot the password. No point in being stupid if you don't show it often I suppose! :crazy:
