If you had read them.. you would have seen that I did mention Paceman, and 3-door Evoque, and have several times in various threads.

When Paceman gets 250hp+, which isn't that high a bar for a 2.0T anymore...

And more importantly, AWD that is permanently engaged, rather than 100% FWD, slip-reactive, and disabled entirely above 40mph...

When it gets actual AWD, rather than Faux-wheel-drive, I would be happy to consider buying it. Stylistically, I like it OK, and better than Countryman by far.

But Since Hammond reviewed Countryman as depressed-looking on Top Gear a little while back, I am not sure I could get this out of my head.
