Car Guese

While it is not up to the aggressive driving abilities of its saloon cousin, it is very capable. Chances are you won't be driving it hard anyway as it will most likely be bought by families.I wanted to hate this car, but ended up loving it. I am still not sure of the looks, but it does some how manage to capture the essence of the original. A family worker, which also brings a smile to your face. Worth a look in my opinion.

BMW (for the moment) are crowned number one in Scotland and the UK premium car market. The German automotive manufacturer BMW group have released impressive sales figures making the manufacturer the UKs leading car brand. This could however change massively within the next 18 months as Audi launch several new models that could potentially put them into the top spot.

Currently, the automaker offers four models (Hardtop, Convertible, Clubman and Countryman), which will be joined by the Coupe in late 2011, and the Roadster in 2012. The series-production Paceman will follow shortly after, essentially creating the first crossover coupe in the premium small car segment.

The concept model is based on the MINI Countryman and it uses the 211 hp 1.6-liter John Cooper Works turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Power is transferred to the wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and MINI's ALL4 all-wheel drive system.
