Should I buy BMW 1-series or Mini Countryman? Want your opinion!

I recently had a major car crash. Luckily I was sitting in a safe and heavy BMW, so I'm ok.
The incident made me think about the safety of driving a Smart like I do to work, shoppping etc. So I have decided to get a larger car for that use.

The thing is that I hate dull family cars. Two cars are in question: Either the new BMW 120d automatic, 184 hp, diesel. Or a Mini Countryman SD All4, 143 hp manual, diesel.
The Mini is imo the cooler car, the BMW the better premium car. Neither of them are very good looking but both have a certain touch that makes them stand out from ordinary boring cars.

Which one would you have chosen?
