Just like the original MINI Cooper, the new Countryman variant is available in more than one flavor: turbo, no turbo, all-wheel drive, two-wheel drive, etc., etc. In addition to the base car, we also spent some time with the Cooper S Countryman ALL4, which is pretty much the fully loaded model. It adds all-wheel drive and a turbocharger.
Fully loaded also means fully priced, as our test car's suggested retail price came mighty close to $35,000. Technically the final tally was $34,900 thanks to $8000 in options, including $750 for the Cold Weather Package, $1750 for the panoramic sunroof-adding Premium Package, and another $1250 for the Steptronic automatic transmission. Even the cargo net was $250.
