That is pretty sweet looking! I hope they are planning to produce a JCW Clubman!?!
ReplyWe’ve got a sneak peak at the MINI Challenge Safety car for the 2008 MINI Challenge series from Europe. This Clubman is a one-off built by the same folks who created the Challenge race car. Built with various Challenge Race car pieces added for increased track performance, what you see below is easily the fastest Clubman ever built. Both the front and rear defuser make an appearance as well as what appears to be a JCW Challenge exhaust. Also take notice of the new rear spoiler – an official Clubman accessory to be offered for 2008.
Could this be a pre-cursor to a full-on JCW Clubman? Time will tell.
Big thanks to Axel for the pics!

ReplyI wonder if that is a color that will be offered on the production car.
ReplyHope that spoiler is effective because I think it looks terribly out of place.
Love the diffuser though.

Looks like the one on the A Team Van!!!!!!LOL.
I actually tend to like it though!!
ReplyI could see a nice set of rails going to that spoiler for a nifty roof rack. We’ll see something like this right away when they go on sale.
ReplyI see the black headlights have made an appearance again from the Millionth Mini … hope they appear on the JCW stage II.
Love the rear diffuser too!
ReplyIs this the first sighting of the JCW body kit for the Clubman? Looks very nice overall.
ReplyO.K. you’ve just given me the idea for my next MINI. A-Team ROCKS!
ReplyI like this a lot. I might go Clubman S instead of Cooper S. I hope MINI offers the black housing head lights soon. I also hope they offer that rear diffuser or some aftermarket company makes some.
ReplyWow. That looks hot.
Of course, I saw it last night during the WRR live show. I’m not bragging or anything ;)
ReplyBest looking Clubman so far. Should be a good safety car for the Mini races. I hae no doubts that Mini will make the JCW kit fit the Clubmna, still hoping they keep the Factory JCW to the coupe only.
Replythat front diffuser/lip is killer. someone needs to produce that.
Replywow those obscured side windows look so cool, come on MINI/BMW lets have the van, it would sell in droves to image conscious companies.
ReplyWonder what that bunker in the background was/is used for? Cheeky Clubman too…

Will there be an aftermarket Van conversion? Or how about a “woodie”?
