I picked up my Clubman S this afternoon.
SpSilver/Black
Clubman S Missing seal on (left)Drivers Side Door.
Clubman S Existing seal on (right)Club Door Side.
The same existed on a showroom Clubman S.
NO SEALS were on a Clubman.
"It gets curioser and curioser every minute."
I discussed this with the parts manager, who's sending an email to Mini.
Their theory was that the club door side needed the seal.
"Then why isn't it on the non S version?" I asked. Theory shot down!

I had no credibility until I mentioned the issue had been posted on Mini2.com and NAM.
Suddenly, I wasn't an idiot. This is when they took a look at the Clubman in stock.

Anyone else have the offer of $700 insurance on your Run Flat tires? What a rip.
I wonder what the finance dude/dudette feels like when they have to offer us those terrible insurance packages for services.
Since the new Clubman wasn't getting to bed early, we went for a ride and I learned about that dreaded BONGING many have mentioned.
It seems it's not ok to have a case of beer in the passenger seat without a seatbelt:
the case arrived home safely and still full.
The ONE thing that appears to be WRONG on my new car is the interior Chrome Package. The MiniUSA.com congigurator says the rear cupholders are to be chrome & mine aren't. Am I nuts or did some of you get rear chrome cup holders?
