Automobile Magazine drives the Clubman and finds a lot to like along with a few areas where it doesn’t quite live up to the coupe. Here’s an excerpt:
>Overall, the Clubman doesn’t feel that different from a normal Mini. The extra length and wheelbase manifest themselves in slightly better high-speed stability, and ride comfort has been improved a bit over the standard car, but little else stands out. The rear seat is roomier but still slightly claustrophobic, the chassis is ever-so-slightly less willing to rotate in tight switchbacks, and rear visibility — owing to the thick C-pillars and the central post created by the twin rear doors — stinks.
It’s a compliment, I suppose, that most reviewers seem to find little compromise in the essential handling of the Clubman given its added length. That “there’s not much to say” speaks volumes.
Kids still say “Rad”??
I’ll be the judge of that.

Tubular!
Groovy, baby!
