First MINI Clubman Configurator Goes Live
MINI of Austria has released the first Clubman configurator on the web. The format is unfortunately the same poorly designed (and rather slow) configurator that has been used in European markets for years. However it gives us the first glimpse into what will and will not be available on the Clubman for the European market. Note that color availability (inside and out) may or may not be different for the US market.
Look for MINIUSA’s online configurator to launch later this fall.

As well as slow, it’s Austrian?German? Not English, anyway 😉
I notice that it lets you configure a Hot Chocolate Clubman S, contrary to a report that it would be a Cooper-only color.
Would be nice if I could get it to do anything besides crash Firefox on the Mac.
I’ll have to keep trying.

Works fine in Safari 3.0.
Pepper White with silver roof/c-pillars. Yikes. As far as I can tell the only colour combination <i>not</i> allowed is Astro Black+Black.
Are those the new wheels that were promised?
Ach der Lieber! Even werken gut mit AOL’s Browzer an einen alten PC. 😉
You also can’t do pure silver with silver c pillars either. I love dark silver with the silver roof. That’s what combination I would go with. I really hope MINI will bring silver roof option to the R56. (SOON)
O.k So take a peak at the Volvo website. (c30 configurator) Now a couple of their colors are hideous but at least they made it out of the 90’s. Mini listen to me I know what I want.
Where’s the white roof?
They are new wheels – Pace Spokes, 7×17. They look nice, what we can see of them here. Much nicer than the Crown Spokes.
Yes those are the Clubman exclusive 17″ wheels. They should be standard on the US sport package.
I reckon the pepper white with black on the c pillars looks very cool!
I like the pepper white/silver with silver stripes too.
Hmm – appears that my Vista 64 and IE7 gives an error (in German?). All I can spot is that it support IE6 on XP. Will have to wait I guess…
I thought Hot Chocolate Metalic was Cooper Only (NO S)? Yet they just let me spec a Cooper S in HCM? Hmmm. What’s this? No special color for the S only?
So it looks like you can choose between two colors for the trim around the rear doors. Is this painted or plastic? Is is like the black trim around the front windows? I’m hoping it’s something that can be waxed and not plastic that will turn gray if wax gets on it.
BTW – PW with black rear trim looks strange
As well as slow, it’s Austrian?German? Not English, anyway 😉
Benzine = Gas (I’m sure you figured that out)
Diesel = Diesel
Click “Weiter” = continue.
The rest is what I call Genglish.
Could someone please translate the Exterior option labeled ‘Sportstreifen’. Thanks ajm
Literally: Sport strip
I’d assume it’s sport stripes.
You can now design your own clubman on the UK website.
