The MINI COUNTRYMAN (2014-17) 5DR SUV 1.6 SS 190 EU6 COOPER S PARK LANE 6SPD is a compact five-door SUV with playful MINI styling and a sporty Cooper S character. It sits between a small family hatchback and a larger SUV in the UK market, adding a raised driving position and useful rear doors without becoming bulky. Mycarcheck.com’s 11 checks cover eight distinct VINs, a modest sample that offers a helpful snapshot. Checked cars averaged £11,900 in private-sale value, 40,000 miles recorded mileage and 4,000 miles a year. They had around 2.2 previous keepers on average; these figures are guideposts, not guarantees for an individual Countryman. Park Lane styling feels distinctive, while Cooper S performance adds fun. It suits commuters and families wanting practicality and more character than SUV rivals such as the Nissan Juke. Compared with a hatchback, it offers a view and versatility, yet stays manageable around town.
