They'll feel largely BMW as well since the F54 is using the BMW UKL FWD chassis, and alot of its interior bits are taken from the BMW parts bin. This is a good thing as the first generation of these new minis were....shite (and used an FCW/Stellantis engine)
I was actually thinking about a countryman at some point (a dad-mobile like yourself, to replace the 86) but wifey wasnt a fan lol. Plus i think the X1 we have feels close enough to it, and is bigger and more practical.

Yeah sounds like I need to get out there and test drive a couple of 'em.
I'd want a FWD one, not keen on the AWD system as it's effectively dead weight 99% of the time.
Is your X1 the RWD version? Looks like there are some 3.0 turbo ones, hmm that would be really dumb but really fun as well !
