Contagious...
New to the board here. I have been a long time admirer of the Mini, and especially the Clubman in CR.
I have a 2009 e92 M3, done up with Vorsteiner carbon fibre parts, Brembos all the way around, and Eisenmann exhaust. My best friend thinks I am nuts, as I am planning to trade it in for a Chili Red JCS Clubman.
I love the M3, but in reality, it sits in my garage in the winter and truth be told, I don't like to drive it to work that often because of a history of cars being damaged in the parking lot, which means that I feel like I own a garage queen. I love the car, but with it being lowered, it is not a good car for the winter around here.
All the times that I have driven a Clubman, I have had an ear to ear grin on my face. I am going to crunch numbers on the JCW version once the Christmas break is over and hope to see my car on this board in the near future.

Farewell...
Friends - I have immensely enjoyed three years (has it been that long already?) of having a Cooper S Clubman. Times have changed and children have grown, and we've decided to switch the Clubman for a new Countryman.
I can't thank the members of the Chili Red Club enough - and the rest of the Clubman fellowship - for all of the help, support and great comments over the last few years. You're really added to the ownership experience.
You can see the new ride here:

Guess I'll have to get a new signature badge...
Happy motoring!!

Congrats
Congratulations on the new countryman. And you got an All4. Looking forward to reading about your experience. I am in the same boat as you are. 2 kids, growing FAST , got an awesome JCW clubman , but sooner or later, i think i'll have to switch.
Congrats again. The third foto looks awesome.

It was a tougher choice than I thought. When my Clubman was new, I thought I'd never sell it. Then as time went by, you "get the itch". Also, it was my first MINI experience, and I think you learn as you go, and find that the personalization is part of the experience. I was not realistically going to do much more to the Clubman, so it was exciting to start on a fresh canvas.
Cheers!

My first post here as I just purchased a Chili-Red Clubman last week. My wife and I are very happy with the car so far, this is even after reading some of the horror stories that are out there on Mini's.
It's a great car and we can tell that the PO had taken very good care of it. It has 87,000 miles on her but still runs strong. Wondering if it was a members here that traded it in? We picked it up in Hooksett NH. As we live in Northern VT it was a six hour drive.
I will try to post pics later, but right now I want to go on another ride!
