The new BMW Mini is now one of the most popular sights on British roads today and you can go 5 minutes down a road without spotting a mini cooper or the slightly more desirable Cooper S.
Ever since BMW first released the new Mini it was a hit on the forecourts and this trend hasn’t died.
The new Mini clubman is the latest Mini derivative as a small estate car for those people that now have a small family but still want the fun and style that the normal Mini offers.
The Clubman comes in the usual engine spec of mini one, Cooper D, Cooper and the Cooper S. Clearly the Cooper S is the hottest flavour of all coming with a 1.6 litre 175 BHP engine which is of course supercharged. You’ll be expecting 44.8MPG in your Cooper S clubman but if you opt for the diesel engine then 68mpg is achievable.

The Cooper S’s are highly tuneable from a stage one which fits a reduced supercharger puller and a remap for your ecu and your rev limit increased to 7250RPM you’ll be looking at 205/210 BHP and the stage 5 you’ll be looking at around 260BHP compromising of the following modifications to your cooper S, smaller supercharger puller, Miltek Exhaust system and manifold, new cam and throttle body and finally a big valve cylinder head. Of course any of these Mini tuning applications will invalidate your warranty.

Wanting a metallic paint then expect to shell out around £330 if you’re not looking for one of the solid (non metallic) colour such as Chili Red or Pepper White. The optional 17” web spoke alloys really suit any of the Mini range and are worth the £800 price tag. The Panoramic glass sunroof is a really nice touch on the Clubman as it gives the car a bigger feel for anyone in the rear. For a well spec’d Clubman Cooper S then you’ll be looking at around the £22,000 mark.
