I have asked to buy yours a few times.

I think if I did the hatchback thing it would be a :scrooge: FiST or MS3 or I would just :troywax: on a HypeR, Veloster N, or FoRS. I covet all of those.

I want the HypeR but I don't think the body style works for me. I like plain and clean designs. FoRS is my favorite to look at. I think that I'm all hot-hatched out, funny how people always want what they don't have.

If I were going to :troywax: on any hot hatch it'd be a 2021 JCW Mini.

Probably not as good as the HypeR or FoRS, but uniqueness scores high marks with me.

A Mini is certainly on the list as well, they are cool as hell. I'd probably go :scrooge: on that though, used JCWs are pretty affordable.

It would be justifiable if they didn't depreciate like an S class but unfortunately that's not the case.

I find it ironic that initially when the R gen was launched they had EPIC resale, yet they were unreliable POSs with countless issues (until the later years).

And now that the F gen is actually reliable, the brand damage has been done and no one wants them because the expectation is that they will fall apart.

Agreed on all points.

I really wish they offered a manual in the X1. Would’ve been a neat wagon thing.

I think the new one is fantastic. Same goes for the Clubman.

The old Countryman was a bit of a cobbled together mess - it was a slapdash effort to get an SUV to market for the brand, and it suffers from some faults. #1) Undersized clutch, #2) Underpowered, #3) Ride quality is rubbish in stock form. That being said, it hits a good mark in terms of being a fun AWD manual hatchback quasi-SUV thing.
This intrigues me...particularly the even more :fullretard: :wat: Paceman. They're rather cheap too.
