The BMW is just more premium, although it shares a lot with this Mini right down to the centre console armrest, but thankfully without the round display in the centre. The Mini is fine for British patriots, I guess.
I have a 2011 Cooper S Countryman All4 and Dec 2020 got a loaner X2 while my Mini was being serviced. Obviously my Mini is 10 years behind in bells and whistles but is still more fun to chuck into a corner. Was happy to give the X2 back. It's a personal taste thing though. I'm very happy with the 50's fighter jet aesthetic.
I ordered the mini…it’s an extremely niche vehicle and not cheap but man did I enjoy driving it. And at the end of the day I wanted something different, there are so many BMWs, golf Rs and Tesla model Ys around me, but I’ve yet to see a countryman JCW. Am I crazy? Probably.
I traded in a Mercedes SL 55 for a Mini Countryman and the only thing I miss is the insane torque of the sl. Other than that it is such a much better, funner car!
the JCW is an awesome trim but I think it's great if you want a family vehicle that you can also take to the track. Personally I'd be happy with the S Trim.
Just ordered mine in Metallic Black with matt black decals and i cant wait! I should have it in around a week or so. Already have the 3-door facelift JCW in White Silver Metallic so this will make my two car garage a complete JCW lineup :D
Great video! I just pre-traded my 2008 MINI Cooper S sidewalk edition convertible and will trade my 2014 JCW Countryman All4 towards my order of a 2023 of the same model. I love, love, love these cars and can’t wait for the new one. Thanks for the sneak peek! That exhaust is badass!
Already bought 3 Countrymans... and January its time to get another.... But I'm in the well do I buy the 2022 JCW or the All 4...... I guess January it might snow and the All 4 is great ? But I have a 2016 JCW with the Full Chilli Pack.... x3 spoilers.. and its so fast!! Love them all!!
I've ordered one for the wife lol.. hopefully I can get to drive it.. X2 M35i she not like the look of... JCW countryman great looking car mega practical
Watson has “and of course, I’m going to poke it with a stick”. While Matt has the equally amusing “and of course, I’m going to give it some sauce through saucy corner”.
I just bought a 2022 Countryman S (not the JCW) and I love it so far. It replaces a VW Golf GTI, a comparable vehicle and I like the Mini quite alot more, especially the ride and charm factor.
@@foxesamu yup. wish I did but reluctantly got xt4. in a year or two will do hopefully early lease trade in and get mini again. worst car mistake I ever made so regret the xt4
It’s my favorite color but with the clubman doors in the rear. The hatch is too short and my back is too old I’ll take the barn doors thanks it’s just the lazy in me
for 50,000 dollars or 45,000 you can get a bmw 330i or 228i instead that’s the problem. it’s unfair. I have a countryman front wheel drive and it’s fun but it’s got nothing in it not even wireless charging
It got most technologies exept the stupid gadgets no one want like wireless charging... it doesnt have the ultra gimiky techs and that it, but no car lover actualy care about this. Also it isnt as expensive as the BMWs
@@michaelschneider1365 its not that much lower cost but yeah id want to try one to see but I strongly doubt it will be as fun as a BMW though as cadillac arent known for driving pleasure
@@ASecureLab but i see reviews say the v and blackwing are an m3. so sport is probably same just less engine. but yeah if the price is right the caddilac might be bmw 228 grand coupe or 330i. so will see. have to drive it and see.it’s definitely priced almost 10-20 thousand dollars better.

Would you buy a MINI Countryman JCW? This or an X2 M35i?! :D

For that money I would by a stinger and holiday to Europe.

For residuals and ambiance a Countryman JCW .Oh I did 🤗
I have a feeling that this guy is trying to copy Mat Watson from Carwow. (Sorry, no offence 😅 )

This Mini is an SUV in disguise. Love your videos. They are both to the point and Hilarious.
Manual transmission please

If you think the price is nuts, I sat in a Skoda Octavia RS for $55k that had manual adjust (uncomfortable) bucket seats.
Skoda are now overpriced rubbish
Brace for the volume jump at 2:07... and can we get a review of the trolley at 2:18 next?

How’s the maintenance of your countryman been going?
Great video and hilarious

You’ve convinced me. I’m getting one.
Great review and sense of humour. Thankyou and keep up the good work mate
We have had 4 minis! Love these beautiful cars.
The head’s up is like that because on the windshield is really expensive!!!
I did and enjoy every moment driving it. This is my 5th Mini. Nothing like it
0:10 small caeeeer 🤣🤣
I have a 2020 model and apart from the instrument panel it is identical I absolutely love it and would buy the am again
How’s the maintenance of your countryman been going?
This car is dope

This guy is good.he knows his mini well. Thanks.
Great review! Entertaining and not boring!
Looks great 👍
Did you do a video for the John cooper clubman 2022. In October I’m deciding between that or the countryman
Get the countryman. Same footprint but way more space and better visibility.
@@foxesamu yup. wish I did but reluctantly got xt4. in a year or two will do hopefully early lease trade in and get mini again. worst car mistake I ever made so regret the xt4
Green and red is a horrible combo, and Ive owned 3 minis. Driving a 2014 S All4 black on black
Great review man. Keep it up
It’s my favorite color but with the clubman doors in the rear. The hatch is too short and my back is too old I’ll take the barn doors thanks it’s just the lazy in me
too expensive to maintain it? always heard they have a lot of plastic in the motor
Whats that app called that measure acceleration?
MINI RGB Countryman lmao
I love the Mini Clubman myaelf
I like it but rather the Clubman
Great video and hilarious
I love my Countryman S
Can it handle offroad driving or low level rivers?
Just put my order in
This was an awesome review. Love the energy of your video
I want one!!!
Chubby dudes in skinny jeans with front pockets full of phones and wallets = poor production value

@@ASecureLab my problem for next time is. do you get a jcw. or a ct4 sport, v since bmw 330 and 228i are out priced
@@michaelschneider1365 its not that much lower cost but yeah id want to try one to see but I strongly doubt it will be as fun as a BMW though as cadillac arent known for driving pleasure

There’s nothing in the car that’s worth $70,000 something like that should be less than 30
Australian dollars… it’s $40K here which is worth it for the BMW in disguise package
SUPER MINI Countryman JCW!!!!!!!!!!!!
