Hey Qim! It looks like the Park Lane edition of the 2016 Mini Countryman came with flush mount rails installed on the roof. If this is correct, I recommend the Inno Aero Flush Roof Rack for Flush Rails item # IN82RV. This flush mounted roof rack does not extend past the side rails so it is perfect for a non-inflatable SUP. The bars are 36" wide and have a 165 lbs capacity.
If you're in need of a carrier the Yakima SUPDawg Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier w/ Tie-Downs item # Y04075 would work great with this set up.
