Clubman cargo net installed

As promised, here is the Clubman Cargo Net (code 413) installed; think's it's useful but not sure it's worth the $250.00 charged for it.
Am curious if the lower attachment rings just below the seats are standard on a Clubman or can be ordered separately? If you check out my new posting on "Yes, You can get that in a Clubman" there is a monks bench; I used the lightweight cargo straps to keep it from moving around and attached the one end of the straps to the rings. For anyone moving funiture or other large objects in the boots, that would be most useful.

Not sure? I can tell you I'm absolutely sure it's not worth $250!! Geez, that ought to be given away free with the car!! I imagine the bulk of the price is eaten up by the installation of the attachment points, but still...

I'm sorry, I could never pay that much for it...

I would rather have a roof rack....

thanks for posting the pix...i almost ordered one of these myself when i ordered my mccs. glad i didn't now. seems to me the pix i saw online that had me considering getting one had some side anchor points as well, or the net itself somehow stretched across the interior width much better, or was shaped more like the interior of the mccs. i don't remember if those other pix were from the miniusa site or not...if they were, and if i'm remembering things correctly, that's false advertising.

false advertising: that wouldnt be a first, when I ordered my MCCS the mini builder showed the rear fog lights housed on both sides of the rear bumper, similar to where the MCS fog lights are placed...

Thanks for the pics again..

I can see by those pictures that i would not do any good for keeping a dog out of the front seats. There is jsut to much room around the sides.
