2012 Mini Countryman Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr SUV turbocharged 181hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The room was not bad, but the seat bottoms are too low and the road noise in the back seats was unbearable. see full Mini Countryman review

2007 Nissan Pathfinder Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUV 266-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	The third row seating is only good for small children. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
2006	4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review
2006	4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review
