Well, I can't really see what the arguments "against" it really are. In fact I cant really see the debate at all.
I can't see how anyone could say the Clubman is LESS convenient than the regular MINI. So MINI have done what they set out to do, there's more room for rear passengers, bigger boot, and a rear door that adds functionality if you want to use it too.
The barn doors are probably more contentious in that they're purely a "retro touch" and styling based, and have a downside in blocking the rear view quite badly. But the Club Door does exactly what it says on the tin. |
