    I went with the JCW Countryman. Mini all the way. I like the fun factor and personality that Mini brings.

    I considered both and decided to go with Mini. It is a better price point if you want active cruise and premium features like HK audio and massaging seats. I like the HUD and the only minir issue is a slight lag with the center screen. I expect they will improve the SW over time.

    You can get massage seats on the driver side only on the Mini, and the BMW doesn’t offer it… not even on a X3. I had a Mini and I love not having a gage cluster in front of me. It can come with head’s up too. They’re using that cloth on the new X3 also!! The Mini is definitely a better deal because they hold their value better than BMWs do.
    P.S. I have never gotten a dashboard dirty. I’m sure there’s some special solution from BMW.

    Great review Anthony. I did not realize that the Countryman had gotten so big! For me the X1 would be it for sure. The mini just looks bloated to me and the X1 just looks bloated to me. How is everything on your side going? We hit 111 today and I was so glad to stay home. Your trip is coming soon yes? Hope all is well and that your are doing great Anthony

      I would go x1 but the m35i. They are both awesome vehicles but the tech in the Bimmer works, I need a driver display lol.
      Today went great the dentist appointment was quick, I get a fresh cleaning when I come back from UK, talked with a new team but looks like it will be a little more work before they give the green light and finished up with Hyundai. It was raining on and off so the weather was amazing maybe the high 90s but it had a cool breeze to it. I hope it cools off on your side and it’s good you got to enjoy it inside. My family bought a motor sport event so look like full work vaca but I’m excited. Thanks James
