    Is that the Countryman Cargo or the Clubman Cargo?

    So they paneled the side windows. What a stroke of marketing genius that was. And they're touting this as a major development?

    It's just a drawing of what it may look like.

    I'd venture to say the windows will not be there at all, not just covered.

    The floor behind the front seats will be flat too according to reports.

    Sounds like a retro model destined for a roof rack and a couple surf boards. Beach'n Man.
    Needs'ta sit low and wide with a hood scoop and some flames.

    :cornut: The rear windows need to roll down for the surf boards and it needs wooden(Faux?)side panels. But then again, I'm a little behind the times. "Come on surf babe, surfin safari. I'm gonna take you surfin with me.":Thumbsup:

    No, I agree. The drop window idea is great. :Thumbsup:

    The problem in understanding this model is the gaping hole in you guys' cultural heritage as its predecessor wasn't sold in the US. At least 5% of Brits lost their virginity in the back of an original Mini van (not 'minivan') and another 2% were conceived there.... :arf:
