What do you think of the Mini Countryman?
I am thinking of buying a Mini Countryman SD ALL4, I'm downsizing from a Range Rover Sport. Do you know of or had you heard of any problems with this vehicle? I know it will not be as capable in the snow as the RR, but from the things I have read it does seem more than capable than most crossover vehicles. Any other comments you may have regarding this vehicle would be very much appreciated.

In the snow they are great on cold weather tyres. I drove one in Austria (where they are built) at minus 20 degrees.
