Stiff ride, buzzy engine, noisy cabin

Stiff ride, buzzy engine, noisy cabin, awkwardly placed switches, fugly exterior, poor fuel economy. The sport suspension ride was so stiff on the stock run flat tires that I bought a set of regular tires for it within a week. Doing so improved the ride, but I owned the car for 45 days before I couldn't live with it any longer, and I traded the damn thing in on a MUCH better car, the MINI S Clubman ALL4, and I LOVE the car. Before you buy an overpriced Countryman, test drive a Mazda, or a Honda, or a Ford, or, or, or... Do NOT base your opinion of the rest of the MINI lineup on the Countryman. MINIs are a hoot to drive. Just not THIS MINI.

Mini still lacking features

Love the concept, but no power seats was a deal breaker for us... Special order was too long for delivery and too pricey... We bought the Lexus NX 200T with all options for about $2K less than the countryman or clubman...

A "hoot" to drive

Voice recognition is still difficult but a "hoot" to drive After a 2 years of driving my Mini I am still finding the voice recognition system difficult. I don't even attempt to use it. I am also finding the seat belt clasp difficult. The armrest is in the way.....storage is a challenge for just the 'little things'. And, yes, it is still a "hoot" to drive.
