Mini Countryman

I think this was one of the first press loans in California, so it was cool to get behind the wheel of it.

And I think comparing, because I've driven the Subaru Uncharted, pretty much all its competitors, Nissan Leaf, new Chevy Bolt, Mini Countryman, even though that's more expensive.

This was a very impressive car, very good build quality, felt a lot more premium than the Chevy Bolt and maybe a little more premium than the Nissan Leaf.

Um, EPA range is great on there.

I was going to go electric, so...

I have provisionally put an order down for a mini Countryman so electric so in blazing blue so there we go so that way so if that but that's not coming until February so plenty of time to see if it's going to you know, work or not for me, and Arnold Clarke, who I've done it with, because that's, like, the only person you can bloody buy cars with up here, you know what I mean? You know, I basically said, you know, I can turn down the day before I'm due to pick up and say I don't want it, you know, it's in the

contract.

I guess they'll sell it, they'll sell it or whatever.

me on the way home, uh, from that and put off my couple of boxes.

And he had a Mini Countryman, which is a decent sized little wagon.

And it was loaded full of boxes up to the roof line.

And he said, 80% of this is Norris.

John Cooper Works Minis, a friend of ours, ordered a...

What's the one with the van back doors again? Not the Countryman, the...

The Clubman had those for a while.

So the first gen Clubman with those doors, they ordered a new one and ticked all the boxes before I had a chance to tell them to perhaps try one first.

And their vehicle? Well, get this.

Brand new 2027 Mini Countryman Untamed Edition.

Now, we've already talked about that, and we're going to talk about it more in an upcoming episode.

The production model, that is.

So congratulations, not just to our own mini team, but to every single woman that took on this challenge.

And what about that countryman? Here's where things get interesting.

Like I said earlier, the ladies were driving a 2027 Countryman Untamed Edition.

And, you know, of course, it's got MINI's all-four all-wheel drive system.

Yep, go there, Tony.

Jarrod would like to know about a '22 M- uh, Countryman, MINI Countryman Cooper S. Hello, Jarrod.

Hello.

How you going, guys?

Good, thank you.

Good, good.

Yeah, so, um, I'm looking to sell my 2022 MINI Countryman.

It's a Cooper S.

According to the What Car Reliability Survey, here are the seven most reliable cars.

Mini Countryman is at the top of the list, swiftly moving on to the Suzuki Swift.

Oh, well, that's understandable.

That's got a great reputation.

But it's also really useful and really exciting in a car, over-the-air updates.

I buy a MINI today, a MINI Countryman today.

With over-the-air updates, I can get a whole new software package tomorrow.

The car does things it wasn't able to do when I first bought it.

[laughs]

... is make sure my dogs fit.

I mean, they fit, they fit in a, a Mini Countryman.

If money was no object, can I have more than one? That's the deal.
