is there any difference in ride height?

it looks like the springs are identical, so where is the difference?

Stiffer springs?

All i can say is dont do it -- one of my mates is the editor of a leading car magazine in the UK -- he helped me spec up my clubman on the basis of their test drives and "ownership" road tests.

He says avoid it at all costs -- ruins the ride -- sends your teeth through the roof of your mouth if there's a pebble in the road, and destroys the balance that the clubman has got ahead of the regular mini because of the longer wheelbase.
