Should I buy a 2017 AWD Countryman
I have been driving Volvo xc-70's for 20 years now. I like how safe and sturdy they are. I like having AWD, and I like the clearance.
BUT -- they are boring. I want something fun to drive and that doesn't look like everything else on the street. However, I am practical. I live in Oregon and get into the mountains frequently. Rough roads, snow, mud. How will a Countryman hold up? My husband thinks Subaru would be a good choice.... He's probably right, but it seems so boring. |
I'm asking myself the same question! I don't need quite the ruggedness that you do but want to be fun AND practical. But I have fallen in love with the Countryman, and I plan to purchase soon!!

Yep, its built off/shares the X1 platform and in crash test and in looks, much better than the X1.
I would go for the Countryman as its more fun and not boring. |
Thanks. now i am trying to figure out whether to buy outright or lease. I have never leased a vehicle, but it seems that with so many changes coming so fast, I might like to update in a few years....

Also, I test drove an X1, and while it handles great -- it basically looks like every other card on the road these days. Engorged ticks.
