Cuteness will fade when you go to the gas pump
I purchased this 2014 MINI Countryman new as the design was unique and quite cute. However, the stitching in the seats allows for chronic crumbs and dust to settle which requires frequent vacuuming. The car uses at least a mid-premium gas and does horribly with the gas mileage - not as stated. The car is sluggish going up hills. There is very little space in the front of the car to store things. All that being said, I am in the process of trading the car in for something more economical on gas, more space to store and a better interior seat design. In addition, the front tires needed replacement at 24,000 miles. The dealer said they 'are high performance tires and wear quickly' .

Clutch Issues Still Not Resolved
We leased a 2016 Mini Countryman. We took the Countryman to the Mountains. 10 minutes into the mountain drive the clutch burned out. The Countryman has 10,000 miles. The dealership and Mini both initially said that we were at fault. My wife has driven a manual transmission for over 20 years and has never had a problem. We are very disappointed in falling victim of Mini's inability to resolve their historic clutch iasues.

Solid and Reliable
We have had this vehicle for fiveyears. Purchased used, with 58k on the Odo, it now has 74k. This vehicle has been excellent! We have not spent a penny on anyting other than routine maitenance! It is roomy yet has a sporty firm ride and, with the 1.6L Turbo and six-speed tranny is a very quick four-door hatchback. It has soft a supple heated leather seating, twin-tilt panorama sun-roof and Pirelli run-flat tires fo keep her firmly grounded. It will cruise all day long at 80 mph on the intetstate. The handling and ride is sporty and nimble! We love this car. It was a great choice! After five years. Still no complaints, no issues, other than the Pirelli Run Flats. Had two tread separations so replaced them with Good Years. Still runs great and fun to drive!

GAS GUZZLER WITH ROUGH RIDE
As far a comfort forget it. This the worst ride I have ever had. You feel every bump and crack in the road. As far as the gas mileage it sucks as well. I was told I would get 30 MPG and the closet I have gotten is 27. Sadly enough I just drove from Covina to Santa Clarita and I got 24 MPG on a 100 mile turn around. What a shame and it is sad because this was one of the most important values for me besides performance and comfort. Nothing good to say about this car. [contact info removed]
