Drivers who have outgrown their MINI cars thanks to their own miniature arrivals no longer have to trade in their beloved motor for a bigger brand.

The larger MINI Countryman goes on sale this weekend at Ultimate Motors.

It is the first version of the car with four doors and optional four-wheel drive.

At 157ins long, the Countryman is the largest and most spacious MINI ever.

It can seat five people but retains the go-kart-style handling of a regular MINI.

Michael Butler, general manager of Bermuda Motors, said: “It bridges that gap between the classic MINI concept and modern sports activity vehicle.

“The two-door MINI isn’t practical for everyone, especially if you have a family. 

“It will appeal to previous MINI owners who have simply outgrown the car as they have got older and had families — the Countryman gives them a stylish, practical option for a family car.”

The standard 1.6-litre model costs from $60,000 and is available in diesel.
