Going to look at a few Countryman's for my wife tomorrow - does anyone know if the 1.6 petrol engines have a belt or chain?
Also when it will need changing?
Can't seem to find anything on google!

Google says chain, no change req'd.

I thought that related to the diesel engines.
Unless it rattles. Oh sorry that's only VW group cars with chains that were pressed with knackered tooling due to VW cost cutting! If only everything in life was as!

Google says "The only MINI ever with a belt was the 2008-2010 R56 MINI 1.6 diesel that used the same 1.6 diesel engine as the Ford Focus, etc. In 2010 that too went over to a chain cam BMW diesel engine."
Google also says they're shite. 🙂

Don't worry, according to duckduckgo they're marginally better than your google-fu. 😀
