At the end of November we placed an order for a new HC/S Cooper Clubman. However, this weekend after my wife, baby and I spent some fun quality time aboard my '05 R53 S, we changed our minds and "Upgraded" our order to a like specced Cooper S Clubman and pay the US$2,250 difference from the original Cooper Clubman order.
We think the Cooper S Clubman is a much better value than the Cooper Clubman, at least here in the US market. Our Cooper Clubman, as specced, was US$23,700 and the Cooper S Clubman we just ordered was US$26,200. Well worth the difference IMHO.
It is a basic spec:
Hot Chocolate/Silver roof Cooper S Clubman
16" Bridge spoke wheels
MFSW
rear fog light
Aisin 6-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel paddles
Gotham Grey door cards
Black/grey leatherette sports seats
iPod Adaptor
Checkered dash/door trim.
The car should be either a late December/early January build and be here by the February 16th, 2008 US launch of the Clubman!
Its going to be a long wait for sure
We have the #1 production slot at the dealer, so we will be the first ever "Custom order" customers to take delivery of a new Clubman.
