2014 John Cooper All4 Counteyman S

Super cute car, NOW PAID OFF (Thank God!) I’m pretty sure from day one this car was a lemon. HOWEVER, I was stupidly in love with it AND paying my $600 NOW is complete- I have had to put $8K EXTRA into this so super cute car… I remain to love it because with high gas prices, filling my tank is cost effective during these inflation times. I really do wonder if there are others with this car, this year/make and model who also got a lemon ?? As the saying goes when given lemons make lemonade. It this case the dilemma with this car through the years has been dilemmanade.

Fun car but lots of maintenance

I LOVE MY MINI. But that being said, it has required a lot of maintenance outside of the regular oil changes. A/C hose, engine fan, door close sensors, window controls, key fob....all of these items have required service/replacement. I take care of regular maintenance such as oil, filters, fluids, breaks and tires. But man, the rest of the stuff is just one after another. And my car is only 4.5 years old. I had a Ford Escape before this and while it wasn't as much fun as a MINI, the required repairs were less than half. I'd definitely get another MINI in the future but as a lease (not financed) and only if a maintenance package is included.

Cute and fun but expensive and quirky

We had a Mini Cooper S before we bought this car, and we basically liked it but wanted more room, so the Countryman S was our choice. We love the looks and the interior room: e test-drove virtually every other car in this class before deciding, and Mini is so far ahead of other manufacturers in terms of space utilization it's amazing. The car feels solid and doesn't squeak or rattle, and even with the A/C on the idle is very smooth, so it seems to be a quality vehicle. But then, there are the reflective surfaces on the dash that seem to catch the light from any angle, and the silly design of the rear hatch that makes washing the car more difficult, and the on-board computer system that is so obtuse you must dig out the owner's manual (or call the dealer) for anything but the most basic task, and the auxiliary input jack to the stereo system that could not be more flakey, and the near-impossibility of upgrading the stock audio system head unit, etc. Then there's the steering. It seems as though each year, Mini completely re-specifies the steering on these vehicles. Our 2014 model is very darty on the freeway, where other years are much more stable. And then there's the suspension adjustment, which not only was wrong from the factory, but also designed without enough adjustment to make it right. All in all, I think we're going to buy a Honda next time, and give up some of the cuteness in exchange for more utility.

2014 Mini Cooper Countryman AWD

We own a manual AWD 2014 Mini Cooper Countryman and love driving it. It's peppy enough and the handling is outstanding. It's also a great car to park in the City as you can fit it in tight spaces.

Wonderful amount of inside space for a small vehicle

We upgraded from the Mini Cooper S to the Countryman S All4 eight years ago because we needed a bit more passenger and storage space. We test drove vehicles from every other manufacturer with this layout, and none of them was close in terms of inside room, handling, performance, and overall build quality.

My son’s Mini

My son’s 2014 Mini Cooper has been quite the nifty car. He loves it, I’m glad for that, it is surprisingly roomy and comfortable. I’m a manual shifter dude but I do appreciate the shirt point’s with this vehicle. So I’m overall pleased with Mini.

Multi-purpose excellence

4WD drive will get you thru in blizzard conditions at Tahoe. Roomy enough to fit two bicycles inside the car. Easy to carry two kayaks on the roof rack. Comfortable for long distance journeys. Handles well on twisty roads and has good acceleration for passing. Easy to maneuver in city traffic and will fit in small parking spots in San Francisco.

Third one

First one in 2010 and then second in 2011. Now the third is a 2014. They got better each time. Little tweaks here and there, but noticible ride improvement. Went to the 2016 auto show in SF. There was nothing there that I would prefer.

Hits all the important qualities!

This car is not only fun to drive and look at it also is very practical. Don't let the name Mini fool you. You get all the convenience of a small car, parking is easy, gas mileage is fantastic and handleling is quick. You also have gold down seats, high ceilings great leg room and adjustable front seats. I can fit 5 in this car, bags of mulch or just enjoy the drive alone. Handles great in the snow and windy roads. This is a solid fun to drive and very practical car!

Great All Wheel Drive...

Great All Wheel Drive Car. We love our Countryman. It has been a great car. DOWN SIDE. YES, BMW, ACCEPT IT, IT IS A BMW. WHY WON’T YOU SERVICE THEM. WHY SHOULD WE BE FORCED TO TOW OR DRIVE OUR VEHICLES 1400 MILES TO BE SERVICED ONLY AT A MINI DEALER? This simple fact will stop me from ever purchasing a Mini again. Boise to Salt Lake, or Boise to Reno, or Boise to Portland. Each one is a out a1400 mile trip. There are thousands and thousands of Minis in Boise. No excuse...

Great vehicle

Great vehicle ! Looks small but is roomy inside. Gets great gas mileage , runs great, do not have any mechanical issues with it. Seats fold down to transport larger things. Fun car to drive . The two sunroofs are a blast and having screens to keep leaves and dirt from blowing in is great
