You know what MINI REALLLLLLLY needs in this market? A countryman DAKAR. Their Raptor if you will. Long travel suspension with a lift, a snorty exhaust, big wing, etc. why not? What have they got to lose?

I know these aren’t technically countryman...or MINI...but these are

Don’t they use the BMW tri-turbo diesel?

Really, it would be great if there was a Mini Raptor....

At least it doesn’t have quite the backwards cap punchable bro look of the coupe from a few years prior.

Though the required mods for that to work would be so... complicated.

They could take an F20, add a mini body kit, and the tr i-turbo would fit  easily. Then just lift it, and add a roll cage. It’d be closer to a German Wrangler than a Raptor... but it would be amazing.

I don’t even think they need to go that far.  Just do standard countryman, turn up the boost, do Ohlins coilovers and bbs wheels.  Call it a day.

And if you removed a single ‘e’ out of the name, you can call it the Mini Pacman...

Seems like Mini just couldn’t keep the pace with this one. It’s one of the only vehicles I know in the US that sold hilariously terribly without being discontinued, low volume, or from a manufacturer nobody cares about.

Mini really needs to make an AWD version of the Cooper S and then go back to the WRC. Focus RS levels of performance in something properly sized to compete in the WRC. The Coutryman was always too big for the modern WRC regs and the program was beyond half- assed.
