Good news! It's not as ugly as its BMW Sister - the X1

It might even grow on me - I admit I was underwhelmed by the Clubby at launch...but we did buy one last year

Hmmm will have to wait till I see one I suppose

I really quite like that, though I don't like the HUGE MINI badge on the back, and I think the exhausts looks too small. Otherwise, I think it looks good

I want the part number for one of those HUGE badges for my shed/future garage!

does look very much like a 4 door mini that has been made taller and the handbrake looks like the handbrake from the megane that preceeds the current megane ,i e the handbrake looks like a grab handle that goes from right to left as on a plane
