HC JCW Clubman
I just got a new Clubman. I traded my 04 MCS plus a few dollars for the factory JCW Clubman. WOW I love it.

Very nice looking! I especially like the 5-spoke wheels. Mine has the 7-spokers and I definitely prefer the 5-spokers from a visual and cleaning perspective. Too bad you got the wrong color blue...

Taken at Duxford; we had sunshine here in Cambridgeshire today so what better time to get a picture?

Show us your pictures of your R55 (Clubman) here-clubman-and-hurricane.jpg

The Royal Mail recently issued a series of "design icons" stamps and used an original MINI and a Spitfire; perhaps a triumph of style over functionality? Should they recognize the error of their ways and release another set, perhaps the Hurricane and Clubman will get their just recognition.

Finally it's above freezing in WI! Got to clean Einstein and polish his newly painted trim.



Shiny Bootie!

Very nice picture! I read about the stamps, very nice. Hey - how far is Cambridgeshire from Cambridge??

Great shot Old Load!

But first - congrats megasport on your great trade in! Nice "industrial" sort of feel to your photos, hobbs. And IzzyG, how many mods has Einstein had now?

Thanks; good subjects make photography easy.
Cambridgeshire is the county and Cambridge is the county seat; I live about 15 miles north of Cambridge and Duxford is maybe 10 miles south.

My new Clubman S..............I changed from a pepper white clubman D to the dark silver S and I am absolutely loving the car, I have lowered it on Eibachs, fitted a JCW airbox and had a remap, the car drove amazing before but now she is massively quick.
