MINI Cooper SUV

Imagine a MINI Cooper on steroids, lifted, stretched, and morphed into something that resembles the space found in a mid-size SUV.  Now, wrap your mind around the idea of MINI producing such a vehicle under the Countryman moniker.  Next, MINI has decided to take the Countryman Cooper S and turn it into a Rally machine, essentially getting back to their racing roots.

The Countryman will be the largest Cooper built and the S model will be tuned to perform on the rally course.  It's 4 doors and two turbos will provide utility and performance, to the tune of 0-60 in about 7 seconds.  Although this information is all in the research and development stage, figures hope to be firmed up by 2011, when MINI enters the rally car market.

   I’m all for a Mini Cooper SUV, expecially if it gets good gas mileage. Mini Coopers just plain look good too, if they do this I will be the first one to hop on the deal. I’m a big Mini Cooper fan!
