I picked up my BRG/Black Clubman S on Thursday - I'll post some pictures shortly.

On a general note I'd say that the car looks way better in the flesh than it does in any photos I've seen...

I upgraded from a 2003 Cooper so it's taking some getting used to - quite a bit more power, way tighter suspension, lots of cool new switches......it doesn't seem as much fun as the Cooper but that could be because I'm driving more cautiously. I really appreciate the larger trunk and the improved rear access though - not to mention the heated seats and cool ambient lighting.

Only problem so far seems to be that the headlights come on with the ignition - regardless of the the level of ambient lighting. I'm not sure if this is something I can reprogram or not and I didn't order automatic headlights....

Overall I'm enjoying the experience and have been approached by about half a dozen folk already asking questions and expressing admiration!
