ZUG just for clubman?

Is it considered bad taste to use a ZUG sticker/related items on a Cooper Hardtop?

mini has the right to repossess your car if you do that. it's in your sales/lease agreement.




/might have made that up.

What kind of "related items" are we talking about? If it's just a "zug" sticker, I doubt anyone but 2% of MINI drivers would even know what it was.

Scratching my head as to how these Z words would go in conversation over the usual Cooper, Clubman, etc.

Thanks, just wanted a general consensus... I think my partner may have ordered me a ZUG magnetic badge for Christmas. I'll know for sure in 2 days. LOL

I'm familiar with "zig" and "zag", but what exactly is "zug"? I think Clubman owners are getting the shaft on this one...

So should we add "Slug" to the equation for the Countryman till the JCW model hits?

I think 'zug' is 'train' in German... Maybe it's because the clubbies have a longer caboose ?

You could certainly do what you like but the Zug was MINIs hard core marketing for the introduction of the Clubman. I'm sure that wherever your partner ordered from would let you swap!


Either way it's nice of the to give ya MINI swag for Xmas!
