Sounds as though your driving lights are programmed to come on. Where I live in NY state insurance companies give a discount to cars that have driving lights.
Really looking forward to seeing your photos! And hearing how you become more accustomed to the new Clubman. Even I with an '06 found many differences, so my bet is once you get used to the car you'll find it more fun. I'm sure you'll hear from others who have had theirs for quite some time.
Congratulations!
