    Check the Motoringfile comments on this article and you'll feel riiiiiiight at home:biggrin5: I think this design will have to grown on most people, myself included. I'm just getting to the point where I enjoy looking at a Clubman.

    OK, I like it. I didn't realize the rear lip was the wing element. That is a cool looking wee car...

    Best photo I've seen yet. Some others made it look like a pot roast.

    I guess I'm in the minority here, but I still do not like it, not that it matters. I like the hatch with the suicide doors much better.

    Maybe I'll get used to that somewhat odd roof line. Looks worlds better than the R60 countryguy to me.

    I'm with y'all! Not a fan yet. Everybody said I had to see the Countryman and I'd like it. they were wrong. Not sure this will win me over either.

    I agree, I like what Mini looks like when it started, not what it is becoming.......................

    Excellent engine upgrades but I don't like all these 2 seat and 4 door models; Sorry

    I like it. It has a lot more head room and better visability than I thought it would. And 6'2" Rick fit into it quite well. We won't be looking at getting one, we like our Cooper S much too much, but I think a lot of people will like it!
