I don’t know why people buy them. Just buy the Clubman damnit! I want a nice selection in 5 years when I am ready to buy one.

Honestly the original Maestro is better looking, at least it has a properly sized rear door.

Yep, I don’t get it at all. The side profile is hideous, especially compared to the Clubman. And no barn doors!

The Clubman is the one new car I would buy right now if I could. I would love a Clubman Cooper S ALL4 in either British Racing Green or Luxury Blue.

They are good looking cars, though I still pine for a Classic Mini.

I do too but I wouldn’t want to drive the classic Mini in traffic.

I mean it’s one step over a bike, so it’s got that going for it.
