| 2011 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 181hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Questionable: the car was delivered with the screen indicators (i.e. remaining mileage, mpg...) NOT activated. I.e. they did not work. It already rattles (3500 miles only). full 2011 Mini Countryman review |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 181hp 1.6L I4 6-speed manual AWD |
I've never had a car that is more fun but more aggravating with maintenance. We bought the car with 80,000 kms and put on another 80,000 kms but had numerous trips back to the shop for a wide assortment of problems: fuel pump, valve cover gasket, spark plugs, tailgate actuator, etc. full 2011 Mini Countryman review |
