Talking Woody Traveler Anybody?

Thought I'd see what this might look like... I'll post a "woody" version when I have a few minutes to do that. Thoughts? Anyone have a variant in mind that hasn't been done yet?

Sign me up for a new MINI Traveller "Clubman" wagon when it becomes available. We are thinking of getting one when the family begins to grow eventually and of course when MINI decides to bring it to market. Some estimates put the Traveller version to become available around late 2006 or early 2007. I hope MINI brings it sooner than that after the MINI Open cabrio gets finally released.

I don't know if I would like the exterior wood grain trim. There is a friend of mine that just brought over from England a 1972 Classic Mini Clubman wagon in dark blue with the wood trim paneling...it looks sweeet. I love the rear opening dutch doors, which I hope they are translated to the new model. I think MINI should offer the Traveller in 3 door and 5 door styles for those of us that are thinking of kids in the future (And refuse to ever go to a SUV or Minivan)and still have all the fun, performance and benchmark driving dynamics of the current 3 door hatchback model.

A MINI Traveller 'S' will be the icing on the cake.

As the owner of a classic Mini wagon, I like your image of what a MINI wagon might look like.

Did you know there's another thread on future MINI estate (wagon) models? Complete with more pictures:

Mabey MINI could release the Candy Blue prototype color on the woody wagon. That would be a killer combo with a white roof. Talk about the ultimate beach cruiser.

BruceK. That first pic in the thread you link to is nicely done. I almost question it's being a Photoshop job.... Candy Blue with the woody treatment? Easily done! Stay tuned...
