Very fuel efficient as well, bought an older one used for 20k. And averaging 28 mpg city and up to 40 mpg highway. Just be warned BMW will screw you over with transmission; change your transmission fluid around 130'000 km or 80'000 miles roughly. BMW will tell you not to; don't believe that, prior generations have issues with transmissions after 110'000 km which can get extremely pricey! From my research people who have had it changed have had their minis be dead reliable for most part. People who havent and i know few in person, paid up to 10'000$ for transmission issues and other problems that followed cause of it. Just saying.....

I think the Countryman is the best looking model in the current mini range. Review was very good too.

Had mine last week, its wonderful !

Mini are truly growing as a brand, i personally think its a great thing. brilliant review ! when will we see an updated mini convertible review ? possibly a JCW one ?

I appreciate that the review has came so early. The car was only officially launched today!

I LOVE MINI as a brand but that little sponsored part was HILARIOUS! This truly is a car worthy of its luxury price

I dont know how good a big mini is, but let me tell you something, rear seat adjustments awesome! Interiors awesome! Boot space awesome! I would love to buy this car only if this wasnt a mini or atleast a different model from mini, and lady you do a tremendously good job at reviewing because not all showcase the rear seat features and you did it all so glad some people are so good at their job it makes so many peoples job easy. Well done lady!

New director? The way it's been filmed is completely different from before, including the lens setting I'm guessing? Not that there was anything wrong before but now it's miles better! Well done!

Can you make a test drive video of the 1.5 Cooper petrol (not all 4)?

What gas does the Mini Cooper 2018 users Regular premium or unleaded

I really like how they made the Mini into a real world small SUV that is comfortable for 4 adults but the trunk is still on the small side which is fine to discourage always carrying too much junk in the back like most people do when they have a lot of space. I just wish they kept the same front lights though because these ovoid ones don't evoke the Mini brand like the round ones on the others do.

The music became so creepy and ominous when the options were listed. :O

I giggled when the 3 suitcases tested were able to fit, however, the top case had its wheels sticking out over the weather strip.........I'm guessing that shot was just for the cool factor, and the cases were adjusted accordingly 😉

Great review from lovely Ginny. Have driven the new BMW Mini Countryman D for a while now so would add the following; The new Front wheel drive BMW 2 litre diesel with 8 speed automatic is simply a fantastic pairing. Just forget manual gearboxes and I am a manual fan. This car with this engine/ box combination will change the way you think about autos. It changes at less than 1500rpm and always seems to sit below 1500rpm..just awesome, it really drives like it has one continuous gear, that means good economy, less work for the engine and plenty of revs available if you ever did need them. It is always in the correct gear, changes are seamless up and down, it is quick, tons of torque and 45 to 55mpg all day long. A solid very well balanced car even in snow and ice. It is a nice car to drive with good windscreen views, heated windscreen option/ quick demist in seconds, car also feels wide, planted and very stable. Has perfect weighted steering and LED headlights are well worth having, sharp consistant beam and bright= safer. My only negatives are 1. Does not have a free Ginny :), 2. Wheels with Run flat tyres (reinforced/stiff sidewall tyres) give far too hard a ride on average to poor roads coupled with already firm suspension, seriously not good at all, ride comfort is too hard so BMW need to improve this issue!! But I think you can get higher spec suspension option, seriously consider this if buying! or definately fit standard tyres at later date 3. Lack of spare wheel.. I always prefer a spare as speeds limited with flat run flats. 4. Taller people may still struggle to get in and out as still a fairly low car, once in, ok. 5. interior mood lighting and media centre on centre dashboard is too distracting at night and too bright with semi cluttered display, best turned off. 6. Start / Stop should have a delay option built in so it does not stop engine when changing into reverse and restarting engine again immediately after, you have to disable this every journey. Still a great car, definately get a 2 litre diesel auto, LED lighting but certainly consider improved suspension. Standard Bridgestone tyres give rather heavy resistance in heavy rain.. the OEM tyres seems to be overall weakness on Mini For both reasons. Mini should have opted for run flats as an option only and fitted a spacesaver wheel

The jcw is way too large an engine for a mini. The sweet spot on this ride is the countryman S front wheel drive (if you don’t live in snow). The all wheel drive is a rough feel if you don’t need it and saves you on the pocket book. Very smooth ride and you’ll save lots of cash. I was a Mercedes Bmw owner for years and this ride stole me. Smoothest drive I’ve ever had. Idk for a family if it’s the best option, but as a single guy with rotating gfs and friends to go to ball games with this car is the best option of all practical everyday SUV use. You can get the occasional scratch and not freak out, or if something happens the price isn’t too steep to fix.

I have a gen 1 Countryman, and I just love it. It's my 4th MINI, and I have it 5 years. I've never owned one car so long. But, the latest gen leaves me a little cold. I did warm to it when I saw it in the metal. But I really believe the pricing is way too much. I'm thinking of changing cars now, and will be looking elsewhere. Leaving MINI after 13 years.

you can't compare a fucking hatchback with suv golf and countryman

Mohammed Mgh This car's an SAV, what are you talking about?

Nice review, but need to work on the volume/sound. Sometimes too loud, sometimes can't hear what Ginny says.

So I have a 2019 minicountryman, but Im pregnant and Im thinking to buy a suv, maybe an Bmw X3 but Im not really sure to leave my CM is a really good car .

Great review, great car, but the cost of the options are ridiculous.

A nice informative review and a lovely bit of fluff. I was entranced.

The old Countryman suffered from a lot of noise at speed. What about this new model?

Update having driven for a few months now. The latest BMW 2 litre diesel is a great engine, plenty of torque and at urban mixed driving gives just over 48mpg. The 8 speed automatic is a fantastic smooth gearbox, changes are silky smooth. Rear visibility poor but ok. Drives and turns well, hardly any body roll, good grip although standard tyres are awful on snow, poor in wet and act like perfect gravel scoops on poor roads, so under car gets bombarded with small chippings. Heated windscreen is great, Led headlights and auto lights are really good. BMW combined front and rear camera system is very good. Except for the terrible choice in Bridgestone tyres here are my negatives.. awful tyres, run flats make for harder ride and no spare wheel or space saver.. always prefer to have a spare.. (seriously not good BMW, run flats are not what everyone wants!). Although no body roll, suspension is too firm, ride is too hard and I describe it as fatiguing especially at rear. The hard ride is partly down to run flat tyres but more due to both insufficiant spring travel and poor shock travel or poor standard of shocks.. this is a let down as this standard of car should have better springs and shocks, especially on the rear where fatiguing it is more noticable when driving.. a car like this hits a raised manhole and you really feel it land, with better suspension it would be less tiring.. Also if over 6 foot you may find harder to getting in and out of.

Nice Review! But its no longer MINI when you add the "SUV". And a comparision with other car will be much help!

And do you really think that MINI can keep making the 3 door hatch for the rest of its lifetime? In an age of SUV's (or an SAV in this case) MINI have to keep up with the times, how else will they make money?

Philip Scott 100%. These purists need to remind themselves that these new cars are just alternatives. The brand is not forcing the new CM on everyone. If you want the small 3 door, get the 3 door. If you want more room, get the CM. MINI as a brand has had some rough sales lately and I think this is a smart choice to expand the horizons a bit.

The idea is to SELL CARS. When you grow up and you need more room than a Fiat 500 and 500X or a Smart 4 Two the light will go on in your head. You can get a Countryman All4 which is basically BMW X1 or you can get a Cooper which is still tiny.

It's odd that a countryman is cheaper then the USA then U.K. Even applying the exchange rate. A similar countryman in USA is 40k while in the U.K. They want $50k!!!!!! For $40k it competes with the Audi q3/5. It may be shorter but has almost the exact same interior space. Keep in mind potential buyers! This is a reskinned x1

Mini has turned from David Banner to incredible hulk. When will this ever bloating size of minis end. There is a reason why the original ones were called minis which is because of the size. Minis have now turned to mini Vans. Now seems as if the original ethos of the mini is being severely mocked which is a shame.

Looks like it's had one too many botox injections. And sounds like BMW is avin a larf with a starting price north of £22k and an £8 options list for the car in this video that could otherwise have bought a brand new mid-range Dacia Sandero.

£8 options list... I wish, lol (ie. £8k). But you get my drift...

The idea of a mini SUV just shows how the car industry is going in the completely wrong direction. What we need are small, efficient cars to do what we actually need. Not huge cars we don't need and will never use the full capability of. And if you're going to make huge cars, then make them electric or plug-in hybrids to mitigate the damage. But they're still using diesels which are beyond stupid.
