My partner is looking for a clubman and so while at the Mini dealer we thought it'd be rude not to look at the new Countryman.

I suppose they are ideal for urban mums who want to show off to their neighbours their latest bling purchase.

Next time have a look at the poor alignment of the exterior trim! I looked at three cars with the same problem.

Was that around the light clusters? I noticed a huge gap there. Reminded me of the Rover/MG vehicles shortly before their demise.
