Long term review : 2018 Mini Copper Countryman All 4 S Problems prior to 60,000 miles: Door Latches: All four door latches failed (at various intervals) requiring the doors to be tied down to the headrest until repaired. The passenger door latched failed twice. Service manager was unable to offer an explanation as to the cause. Research mini and BMW door latch failures. Battery Replacement: No indication/warning light given that the battery was getting low… It just stopped functioning. Replacing the battery requires removing support bars and engine compartment panels. Somewhat time consuming compared to most cars. Engine Coolant: almost all of the engine coolant evaporated causing the car to overheat. No warning light that coolant was low. Car had been serviced by Mini of Bedford two weeks prior and had been consistently serviced by the dealership. Decals: Decals around the headlights bubbled and needed to be replaced. Tires: Run flat fair weather tires needed to be replaced to allow for inclement/snow conditions. Service/Technicians: There are very few shops that work on Mini Coopers and most are as expensive as the dealer. Overall: The Mini Copper is not a reliable vehicle and owning one in North America is costly unless you have the time to perform the repairs yourself.
Thanks for making me laugh. I always hated those loud Mustangs. Now I know it is the owner removing the mufflers. Stock not that loud. Nice volume. Except during cold start of course. So now I own one of the idiot mobiles. I guess I need to hate myself. I'm conflicted because I can't wait to get home from work and go for a drive and do stupid things. I really despise Mustang owners, they cause a lot of trouble and create a lot of noise doing it.
Very tasteful review. I really enjoyed it. Just purchased a 2019 430i gran coupe and have really enjoyed it. I love looking out the window and just seeing it sitting there in the driveway looking as sexy as she is. Lol. Again, however, very great review. I think I'll go watch again!
Just bought one of these 1week ago in silver(white to me) absolutely love it fast as,coming from a mk5 gti which I’ve had for absolutely ages and put back to stock this mk7.5 feels like a rocket ship to me
