How much can you fit in your Clubman???

I'll start. I race remote control cars and travel all over the state.

Inside I have

6' folding table
10x10' Quick Shade canopy
folding chair
cooler
3 RC cars (2 1/8th scales and a 1/10th)
Fuel bucket
Large hauler bag (holds my tools and parts)
small hualer bag (tires)
radio bag
extension cords

And best of all with everything on board I could still see out the back windows. LOL Lets see you load all that stuff in your standard Mini

LOL Nope

Pavement is for getting to the races. DIRT is for racing

I fit my road bicycle (with the front wheel removed). It was one of my requirements for interior cargo space.

I moved a Hoover tumble drier today - more easily than my son could have in his Range Rover.

An entire set of drums, hardware and cymbals in a Clubman S, with room to spare (I think Sparkling Silver has a little more room inside).

Great to see the flexibility of the Clubman's interior for all sorts of things - of course we know that some very big dogs can fit in there as well.

the clubbie is very spacious! I love the little compartment under the trunk as well where you can fit many things. Just pull up the flap and check it out..pretty cool

I was at the garden center today and brought home a 10 foot purple fountain beech tree! I put it on the front seat, upright, through the open sunroof. It was a slow trip home, and the passenger seatbelt warming kept chimining, but both tree and Clubman came through in great shape!

Pull up to a Hummer, give them the one finger salute, and say "my car is MUCH greener than yours!"

A new lawnmower (in the plain cardboard box), sweeper, some curtain rods, and a few other things, and it wasn't even above the window line.
