I guess that's a normal modern mini and one of the super bloat "not it the slightest bit Mini XXXXL"
I did the think the Clubman was the same car as the 3 door but longer, as it was with the previous shape R56 and R55, but apparently not.

The Countryman has different headlights, so I think it's a 3 door and a Clubman estate. There's a bit of small/far away going on with the slight angle and the 3 door being further back in the bay, but the Clubman is a wider and taller car than the 3 door as well as being longer.

Not just the MINI that has bloated since it returned in modern form.

I didn't realise they made so many different sized versions. It must have been the previous model of Countryman I was thinking of, I remember seeing one parked to SWMBO's wagon and the "Mini" being somewhat tallerI did the think the Clubman was the same car as the 3 door but longer, as it was with the previous shape R56 and R55, but apparently not.

Love it.....I've owned a couple of Jags going back... 420G and S3 XJ12.. but back in the early 80's a mate (who had more dosh than me) had an XJS V12.... I remember driving it from Croydon down to Brighton, four of us in it, left a very positive and lasting impression.... If I was collecting one would very definitely be on the list.........

Mind you that Range Rover is about the size of a transit.
And to be fair, I'd parked over the car park drain, so it was a bit lower than the Disco and Volvo to start with....
Still makes it look like a toy car
