Clubman S just bought

Just been looking at changing my 54 plate MCS to the R56 Model. Then got looking at the Clubman.

I have two kids and a dog and this was quite cosy in the r54 MCS, so we all sat in the Clubman. Really good!!!! Did not even have to open the club door.....??


Also S model is much more efficient than the older r54 model.

£120 road tax,
40mpg.
7 sec 0-60
Twin pipes

Sounds great

Is it the DS/B launch car? If so that is a cracking looking car

United-States

I picked up my baby yesterday. Man, I wish I'd have dumped my BMW convertible earlier...like February, when the Clubman came available in the states.

United-Kingdom Got it!!!

Wow!!!

Picked up the Cooper S yesterday. Really pleased with the car.
Nearly bought a 1 series sport, but compared to the Clubman, there's no soul !!
Everyone takes a second look when you are driving.

44MPG Steady 80mph on the way home.....................

wow!! That's a stunner Congratulations

The 1 Series is a very competent car, but your right - Very little/No soul

And 44mpg - Can't seem to get that out of the Cooper, even on the motorway!!

Congratulations once again

Really enjoying having the Clubman.
Kids like the extra room in the back, my wife can now get the weekly shopping in the boot. Not like the R54 MCS.
Overall cool!!!!
