We comfortably got us and all our baggage for a 10 day holiday into the car. Not a problem at all.

But yes, I really enjoy being different, the back of my car looks great and I love the fact that us clubman drivers always notice each other. It's like being the member of a special club!

I suppose that this goes somewhat towards answering my question......Why ?? thanks

Hey PrincessRiot don't I know you nikola maybe

To answer the question, I brought the Clubbie because I like it

We already have a Hatch so the Clubbie does give us more space

I don't actually think her comment was sarcastic at all! What she's saying is she thinks its a mini for people who want/need more space - a mini for people who need more space

Hey guy, my reply was not meant to be sarcastic, not even sure how you read it as so!

Just shows how forum replies can be read or taken in the wrong way to the way they were meant

If PrincessRiot thinks I've said something sarcastic I'm sure she will tell me

If she took it the wrong way then I'll apolgise to her maybe on another forum where we know each other

Ive driven a clubman S now for 1 year just px it this week for a Graphite D with a few extras fancied a change!

Got my insurance renual 2 weeks ago it had gone up £200 shopped around and couldnt get it any cheaper tax due next month so looked into a change when I was offered £500 more for the car than what I paid for it and got a few extras thrown in for free i couldnt say no!

Pick up nxt wk hopefully when shes had her bits & bobs fitted

Just hope I dont regret it

Love both the Hatch & Clubman ( although my daughter (age 16) hates the clubman she thinks it looks like a herse too along with most of her freinds )
