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.

We have leased our last two vehicles and plan to lease the Countryman (ordered 5/12/17!!). The nice thing about leasing is you have the option to buy at the end (price stated at the beginning of the lease; the "residual value"), and you only pay for the depreciation of the car, plus the "money factor" (interest rate). The downside of the interest rate is that is seems a bit high with Mini. If you put relatively low mileage on a vehicle and like to have "new," leasing might be a great option for you/your family.
