Clubman Rally with OEM Basket
All:
New to Minis and this fine forum, here is a pic of my 2010 Clubman S "Rally" edition with green mirror caps and escutcheons, JCW body kit, monochromatic paint, Black 17" wheels, roof basket and black driving lights
I really, really like this car and am totally impressed with the build quality, driving experience and overall dealer experience I have had.
I will post some better pics later and verify whether the basket is made by Thule or not. My parts guy thinks it is which would be great as I then can use my thule bike racks and key them the same as the basket for ease of use.
Cheers
Bob

That particular basket looks very similar to euro design basket from Thule, but if you ask anyone at Thule they will deny that they make parts for MINI just as they deny and MINI denies that the cross bars are by OEM Rack bars are by Thule but if yo measure them they are the same as the Thule Aero Bar

Great feed back from everyone here. Thanks! I have been looking around and even called Thule to speak with someone about everything. They told me I needed 50" bars...I measured that compared to my roof on the clubbie and its like a good 2.5" overhang on each side (so i think he was wrong). And then he gave me part numbers for the fit kit and mounting system, totally different from what the Thule site give me when going through the Fit Guide. So now I'm all over the place here...
If you own a clubbie and have a roof rack maybe you could PM me and talk a bit about the setup
Thanks
