Oh dear god, :D

Although, it's probably alright because it probably has to be trailered or craned into position, :D

You'd beach it on any of the speed bumps round here, :D


Second one isn't quite as bad, bet the rides a bit harsh though, :D

I don't see the point in lowering, surely it just ruins how the car drives?

Going to hopefully test drive a countryman tomorrow anyway ;D

I like the idea of having something chunky, and I can get more gear in the countryman when I go biking etc

Looks boss in the right trim too :shifty:

Saying this, I do quite fancy a JCW hatch in a few years when I'm on better money :D

I heard the countryman only have two backseats because of regulations in the US which limits number of seats to the width of the car. It's one universal model even though it's only a US law. They have since repealed that law and the next countryman update is doing to have 3 backseats. I don't know if that's happened already, but might be worth a bit of wait. Or maybe buy now if you like having two buckets in the back instead of a bench style seat in the future.

Probably old news though,

you can have 4 or 5 seats as an option, theyve just fitted a bench into the rear

I quite like the 4 seat rear though, and I doubt theres many times I'll be taking 5 people about anyway
