New Owner Clubman

[JamesC27]

I have finally made the jump from a Honda Civic VTI-S, and am picking up my first Mini on wednesday. Its a Cooper Clubman, I may be going on a limb here but I love the design, general opinion seems to follow marmite(its a love/hate thing). Really impressed with the car and mini dealership so far, have only got experience with VW(poor) and Honda(good). Looking forward to picking the car up on wdnesday will post some pic's.

We've got a cooper clubman (it's my wife's actually), picked it up in June. It's an absolutely fantastic car and gets loads or attention with nothing but positive comments! It's chilli red with black roof, mirrors and c pillars. It's got half rooster red leather, panoramic sunroof, full bluetooth with multi function wheel and USB and white idicators.
My wife had an E46 3 series before but as I work for a BMW dealer i got a special one off deal of 13% off the price and finance at cost (under 5%) so it was silly not to go for it! Don't regret it at all.

Hi guys,
Would be good to know if they're as economical to run as BMW/Mini claim. Keep us posted!

I have a R56 Cooper hatch and get 44+ mpg at the moment. Really pleased with it

Agreed its a marmite thing - but going 40 mpg around town alone is far better than 21 mpg from "old" Defender !
