Make the top removable and add a cage and it's what should have been.

Is that a diecast model in the photos?

Sweet! But I think I'd still prefer the Beachcomber Concept (based on the Countryman layout):

Not so sure about that tire hanging off the back door. That might diminish your rear vision (and who wants THAT?) Not enough OFFSET!! :)

I think it looks great. Good job by whoever did that. Of course its all show.

I want one just to park it next to the VX. That way women will stop calling the VX "cute". lol

I kinda like it...not for wheeling, but would be fun to rally! I would relocate the spare inside though.

I think this is one of those cars that I'd clamor for them to make, but won't ever buy. I like the countryman a lot, actually, and if I were a millionare with a airplane hangar for a garage, it'd be in there.

...but this concept, I can't help but feel it would need many moreinches of ground clearance--otherwise, if in the market for this, why wouldn't one buy an STI or EVO instead?
