That Clubman with the wood on should be strangled at birth.

I heard the Mini boss mention they were looking at doing that....nasty!

Meh. I don't think you'll see me trading in the 05 I get for one of those.

The one with the funny grille is fake and posted before. The new new MINI wont look like that. And the woodies are from an italian coachbuilder, not BMW.

Definitey. That's one old and established rumour now.

Like the look of the car in the Autocar article. FAR better than those realy ugly other pictures of a couple of months ago. Here's hoping it turns out more like the new pic.

what has everyone got against the castaga version.. i think it looks great.. im not the fan of the woody version of coze and i'd leave that off in a heartbeat.. but if i have the cash i wouldn't mind doin the castaga interior and the rear end extension
