Can also be eg. black ... Yet I haven't seen any in white. So, perhaps only silver and black, or perhaps even white after all. We'll get the info soon ...

Thank god it's an option. I don't like it at all.

Re: MINI Traveller / Clubman spy pics

I don't like the barn doors at the back, the strange looking silver colour coding and the strange asymmetric passenger side door arrangement. I get the uniqueness being the idea behind the concept but the execution leaves me emotionally unmoved...

I'll stick with the conventional little hatch.

Yes, they are. They look "strange" because the housing (the silver part around the cluster opens with the door wing ... Just like on a Traveller Concept:

You and me both, Martin.

Frankly, I think the Clubman is ridiculous looking.

Re: MINI Traveller / Clubman spy pics

I am looking and I am very angry ... Apparently there were hitchers on the road . These shots with the in car camera are to show how "The Other MINI"
Is still very much a MINI.

This particular little MINI has been along way from the bright neon of Tokyo - To Donuts in Manhattan And clubbing in Berlin... Just off schedule ( we shot them each on a day) Will be a MINI Clubman in Cooper specification finished in delicious Hot Chocolate!

A pity it's next destination is the crusher!

Press release is Next month.

oh, i am confused. This design must be really complex and thus it will cost a lot, so mini clubman will be even more expensive than the regular one.

also this kind of door opening is a bit odd (?) so de we have any more pics of the concept?
