The way they keep growing, next year's model will compare to the Chevy Tahoe.
Bet soon,it'll be called a #full_size SUV...

Lol
dchawk81 hey....they’re babies they gotta grow
🤣🤣
I love the sound of the i3 twin turbo. Hope we see more i3 turbocharged engines.
Umm ... isn't Oregon the Northwest?
Yup, Roman misspoke. The snow must have frazzled his brain.
Would make sense though since the Mini has a New Jersey license plate.
The Fast Lane Car You funny man! hey... by the way, when is Nathania coming back to review the beetle Dune? You guys know she is way overdue right?
So in what way did he misspeak -- is he in the snowy Northwest, or is he in Portland Maine?

Yeah....he said northeast but then I heard Oregon...I was like what?...
I have '15 Countryman, and you don't actually have to put the key into the crescent-shaped hole. The key just needs to be in the car to start it.
Cars that are LONGER than this huge MINI Countryman which is 170' inches long include: Mazda 3 (177.6"), BMW E30 (170-175"), 1993 Honda Civic (173"), 1999 Porsche 911 (175"), 1982 Ford Escort (170"), 1990 Acura Integra coupe (172.8"). I think I've made my point....
I just noticed the "tachometer" glow-ring around the center display. That's... different.
As always, great reviews. We test drove quite a few mini's and the new generation (2014+), while more refined and luxurious, trades that for some of the fun factor. Even the 2017 Mini Cooper Hatch JCW feels torn between "am I luxury or fun" vs the previous generation refresh (2011-2013). While mini's are intended to be fun, the current newly revised crop (inc the 2017 Countryman) appeal to more "normal, more luxury", "bigger is better", "lets appeal to more buyers" but trade out the quirkiness and fun factor. Hopefully Mini will still bring in the "mini minor".
Did he say you can ''customize it to your heart's extent''?. I am sure he meant to say you can customize ''to your heart's content''. :)
40-10-40 folding seats? What happens to the other 10% of the seats? Do they not fold?
more likely he's just being funny or stupid
I own 2016 countryman S bought used.
They have been improving reliability, i would recommend the S model, cause the 3 cylinder is bit of strain on engine according to few people i knew who owned.
And bet the #diesel_hybrid variant will also be fully available for other-markets like #South_America and Africa too...
I had to go pull out the map lol cool car
Biggest difference is the size!
I had the Closed Captioning on due to noise of people working in the house. You might want to check the CC since I don't think you wanted the "F**k" part in the CC. The CC has all kinds of weird stuff in it. I will re-watch the article when it gets quieter around here. The part I did hear, other than the geographic impairment, was good.
I saw that too. "F**k you decide how much."
Seems to me as part of a media source testing and reviewing cars, reliability should be an issue. After all, folks are relying on you to supply them with ALL of the pertinent information to make an educated decision on which car to buy ,and nobody wants to spend upward of 30 grand and buy a lemon.
+Statimtek how sure, we'd love to do it and we're starting with our long term Final Frontier series on TFLnow
The 1.5 litre 3-cylinder Mini with only 134 bhp is underpowered compared to the Golf 1.5 litre that has 150 bhp. The 1.5litre engine from the Mini is the same engine as fitted to the BMW i8 but the i8 has 215 bhp. The mini really needs to remap its engine to at least 150 bhp. When at motorway speed in top gear the turbo is not working so the acceleration for overtaking is really bad - personal experience has shown that you need to change down 2 gears for safe overtaking. But, the worst thing? The wind noise when travelling above 60 mph. This is not a car for long distances. The Golf is far better in most areas.
Are you referring to the Countryman?
Looks like Hood River, OR
They need just a bit more power S with 200 hp
New Jersey license plates in Oregon??
Shame that Mini isn't making small cars as before, increasing their size makes the name of brand, for me, redundant...
You couldn't be more wrong. MINI's are still very small. Cars that are LONGER than the MINI Countryman which is 170" long: Mazda 3 (177.6"), BMW E30 (170-175"), 1993 Honda Civic (173"), 1999 Porsche 911 (175"), 1982 Ford Escort (170"), 1990 Acura Integra coupe (172.8"). I think I've made my point....
Diogo Simão Certainly oxymoronic.
Oh I'm not saying they aren't small, but you shouldn't compare a sedan to a car more suited to a city. Maybe in the US, yes very small, but seeing Fiat Panda's and 500's, Smart's and other small vehicles everyday, I can't help but wonder why there isn't a Mini as small as those cars.
because a fiat panda and a smart car are rolling death traps.
camera moving to fast in cab portion. Volume issues, not audible at times. good review of car.
You REALLY should start using a microphone.
Why do a lot of press cars have New Jersey plates?
+Luis Barraza USA mini is headquartered in New Jersey
26mpg combined for the standard car? shouldn't that be 46mpg?
Wrong Portland Roman, Portland Oregon is in the Northwest
Did he just call Portland Oregon SNOWY NORTHEAST…!?!
Hey
why are wearing sun glasses on a snowing overcast day?
+LokiDaFerret because we know good grammar so we are cool 😎
The Fast Lane Car yeah. ok. I deserved that... I pulled a Trump! 😆
It's the same size as a Golf but it feels bulky? I'd go for a Golf. They always feel great even in basic form.
why dont just mini install a honda civic turbo engine there
EvendimataE No, just no
*Northwest
its 2017 mini needs a digital cluster and that navigation looks horrible..
Mini should've kept with the 2012 design. :s
still hate the round display
27 mpg? I get 40 with my 09 Clubman. So sad to see the Mini become more Americanized, as in, getting fatter and bigger.
Mark Phillips You have the diesel I assume...
Mark Phillips do you live in US or UK? Heavy pollution laws in the US
Mine 27.4 mpg avg. Countryman ALL4 2012
27 mpg to a US gallon I assume. So approx 32.5 mpg U.K. gallon.
Did you just say:welcome to a very snowy "North East" and that you were just outside of Portland Oregon?......Must be the cold weather.
Tony Iacona Maybe Roman thinks he is in Portland, Maine? 😁
Always check your airline reservations VERY carefully! :D
when transitioning from speaking segments to music only...PLEASE adjust the music volume/gain down a notch or two as each time you (guys) went to the music, I had to turn my volume down 5-10 pts or risk hurting my ears; this was w/my computer volume at "40" and YT volume at the bottom 20%...I really like when you do base spec'd/limited option cars to show the "affordability" of cars like this...more sub $30K optioned car please..thx...yes, I know the avg car price is $33.5, but that doesn't mean a nice, good, fun car can't be had for less
K03sport
I have ALWAYS thought the music went way too loud. Surprised this was first time anyone mentioned it.
I can’t believe how much people wine about free you tube videos. You people need a life lol
Todd Robertson
I wouldn’t call constructive criticism “whining”. Maybe Roman appreciates the comments. 🤔
Umm why do you always say the sunroof takes away headspace it seriously give you more
fugly roof rails.
If your cooper has 4 doors its not a Mini Cooper..it’s a mommy cooper lol and i hate the interior, They are slowly getting rid of everything that makes a mini mini.. no thanks. I’ll keep my r53 as long as I can.
