Can't believe you're still considering the Clubman JD. You ought to mull over a more natural form of transportation, all wheel drive and better looking too.............

Hmm...what a coincidence. After you posted that video, the dealership informed me that they have a Buffalo Bill Edition Clubman available .

I have to say, it doesn't look too bad in that color all shined up. Horns on the hood and a customized plate "Tatanka" would finish it out nicely.

For you JD, that is an affirmative. I never understood (actually yes I do; Sales) why a company takes a great design like the Mini, then decides to incorporate redesigns / changes that alter it's original allure; Small, Cute, handles like a Go-Kart.

Given your offbeat proclivities, I'd say it's about perfect.

P.S. Those bigger black wheels helped immensely IMO vs. the prior page's photos. The earlier white car is near outright hideous visually in comparison. Your Car, Your Choice Brother........

JD.....Shoot me an email please........Mark.

Having previously owned an '08 Cooper S, I can attest to the vehicle's limitations in terms of seating and cargo space. My guess is that Mini is trying to expand upon the success Cooper by creating a more accommodating version of it such as the Clubman and Countryman. Thus, appealing to an even larger market. Case in point, I would love to own another Mini again, however, my lifestyle and needs are much different now ( i.e. dogs), so the standard Cooper is not sufficient .
