Towing Ability

Looked a few places for any info on towing with a Clubman and found nothing. Has anyone heard anything about towing ability? Would be nice to tow a Mini Track Car with Clubman.

Cool idea. My wife and I are thinking about a secound MINI ... a Clubman. A MINI is now rated at about 1000lb. I doubt a Clubman would go to 3500, but hay who knows.

A local guy in Cali tried to tow his classic Mini to Vegas for the AMVIV. Made it about 40 miles before he had issues with his MINI. Off loaded his Mini and had his MINI towed home.Continued to the event in the Mini.
