I own 2016 S Countryman. I can say the fuel is better than what they claim it is. (Of course colder weather it'd be worst) However, having it as daily driver, using highway 45% of the week, fuel averages around 30 mpg on my last fillup. The reason people would prefer the base model would be obviously for fuel consumption. Afterall the countryman isn't designed to be the sporty mini, it's designed to be the touring mini. If you prefer more sport with your ride you get the Clubman or the cooper. Personally l love mine, simple car with good fuel and comfortable ride.
Ok great review of the mini. The mini brand is considered a premium car. I should know, because I have a 15 Mini Cooper S 4 door hardtop. My insurance company considered it a premium compact sedan. The big giveaway to that is the brand is owned by BMW!
Great detailed review! Please review the hybrid version, does it really saved a lot fuel? How much the bottom of the truck reduced for the battery? Can I get red color for the hybrid color?
The car in this video has a New Jersey State licence plate but you filmed the review in what looks like sunny southern California in the Los Angeles area can you please explain why that is in terms of logistics for getting the car all the way across the country from New york to LA for example?
Have a 2007 MINI Cooper S and other than oil / fluid changes and an early issue fixed under warranty, I still am running with all original parts. No interior wear and tear. I will be buying a Countryman in 2019/2020.
I was aiming for a bigger SUV at first but when I saw the 2nd gen countryman that changed my mind. I will get it hopefully in few months time
Did you end up buying one?

Do they still break down

Very good review
Nice video
Great review, keep it up!
Can i charge my phone in this car?
Bentley, Hyundai Genesis & Mini Coopers all have a somewhat similar badge. They are all fancy cars too. Coincidence? 🤔
I was going for the dodge charger sxt but suddenly I changed my mind I want the minni
I like this care. I am actually the difference between the Paceman and the Countryman.
180 hp from 2.0L turbo? Some 2.0L turbo engines produce nearly 300 hp.
Sangmin Lee... The same engine makes 228 in the bmw x1 and jcw trim... It's marketing placement on bwm's part... A tune/chip will bump up the numbers
Sangmin Lee faste than the juke?
Drive one you will see its a rocket.
Watch my review on a 2012 countryman s !!
