It's a Countryman Coupe! A wonderful fusion of everything we've come to love about new Mini's. Now excuse me whilst I go and throw up my breakfast.

The Evoque is it's main competitor?

If I was choosing, the MINI offering would be invisible next to the Evoque - it looks like a skip.

How ever did they see though that disguise?

[LaurasOtherHalf]

Well it looks better than the normal countryman.

Damning with faint praise I know

This thread needs a warning, I was trying to eat my breakfast and everything

It's an improvement over both the Countryman and the Coupe I think, but that's like saying that being stabbed is better than being stabbed while being forced to eat shards of glass.

[pembo]

That is clearly a very bad photoshop!

But if they did make it they'd probably sell loads

[marcosgt]

I quite like the Countryman (Although I'd probably never buy one), but the coupe is a crock of st.

I agree - looks better than both imo, but it's not something I'd ever think about buying.

I feel less sick than when I see a normal Countryman. That's about it though.

FFS, how many times do they need to release the same car? One MINI model is not going to do anything that they others can't do.

I'm gonna get it in the neck for this, but, I like it, more than the rest of the range, I much prefer the up-right grill of the countryman, they've taken away the ghastly rear end.
My ex-wife has the countryman, a flat brown coloured one. It looks like a floater.

I can imagine the coupe with a turbocharged motor and 4wd and I think.... mmm.... quite nice.

I like it then again I like the normal countryman and coupe. There I said it.

[LuS1fer]

Pretty much every Countryman I've seen so far has been driven by a middle-aged um with kids on a suburban estae. Saw a lemon one the other day. Needed squeezing.

[deltashad]

Can you tell i'm bored?

[fatboy69]

You require urgent medical attention..... Truly hideous looking cars. IMO.

[rhinochopig]

It's design failure. Given the coupe is modelled on a baseball cap, then logic dictates this should follow the lines of the tweed cap. At least they attempted the tweed look on the rear of the car.

[SSCooperS]

Eeeeeuch.

The sooner I can leave Mini ownership the better.

I don't like it, but who cares. If you don't like it don't buy one. BMW clearly aren't foolish, a number of people who maybe place percieved style over substance will run to the showrooms to purchase one of these.
