lotsie, I think that's the rating of the hitch. Every hitch has a tow and tongue load rating. I'm trying to find the Clubman tow rating, but I can't find the spec anywhere. Anyone out there who knows?

Well, given that it's not that much heavier than the coupe, has the same drivetrain and suspension, I'd say absolutely yes, the Clubman can tow.
...and ANY Mini can haul...
Here's my ugly trailer...

Hopefully this kind of marketing will not flood the market with the little cars we all love, be it 1st gen, or 2nd gen.
Flood the market, I say. I wouldn't mind if Charlotte started looking like MOTD.

Lotsie, nice spec. I feel that if you go with a CR/B Clubman you need black stripes, front and back!

Thats the plan. Thinking of a single centered one on the bonnet, going to have to see about the rear hatch doors.
OK, enough of this
, anyone got any more numbers to share.

So there are already 703 of us in US roads as of 2/29/08? I think the Clubman has gone to a strong start...
