Question 1

Which used Mini Countryman generation should I buy?

Accepted Answer

The second generation, from 2017, is roomier and uses BMW's own petrol and diesel engines, with a better record than the first generation's 1.6 Prince petrol. The first, from 2010 to 2016, costs less but needs a careful check of its timing chain.

Question 2

How much road tax does a used Countryman Cooper SE ALL4 pay?

Accepted Answer

Usually the €30 minimum, as a plug-in hybrid is taxed on its engine's CO₂, which is low on the SE ALL4. A Cooper D pays with the diesel factor of 0.9, half as much again as a petrol at the same CO₂.

Question 3

Is ALL4 all-wheel drive worth it on a used Countryman?

Accepted Answer

It helps on wet and snowy roads in the north of the country and when towing, at the cost of slightly higher consumption and CO₂, and so a little more road tax. For town and motorway driving, front-wheel drive is enough.

Question 4

Which versions does the new Mini Countryman come in?

Accepted Answer

The petrol One, C, S ALL4 and John Cooper Works ALL4, a D diesel with 163 PS, and the electric E and SE ALL4 on a 65 kWh battery. Every combustion version has a dual-clutch automatic.
