Here's my Laurel, seems to be rare now.

 

That's probably the rarest combo MINI ever made. You see Laurel hardtops, but very very few Clubmans

 

Really rare. That looks frigging sweet.

 

One of my favorites!

 

Laurel Editions look great. They actually had an equal amount of Hardtop/Clubman/Convertible models produces. Each US dealership received one of each in 2010.

love your laurel, here's mine, same pic as my other post but I never put it in here.
Wish the previous owner kept the stripe on the roof and they also took it off the back door as well, but oh well, I still love it. Also, I've seen pics of some with black mirror caps and some with white, mine has black obviously and I thought I liked that better, but yours is making me want to get some white ones
Had it just over a month so far and am enjoying driving every chance I get (read make)

just realized, u have white mirrors because u also have white pillars in the back, whereas mine are black. was that part of the different winter/summer packages does anyone know?

 

 

I re-posted it for you. Very nice Laurel and nice shot at the dragon.

Must have been port ( VDC ) added options. These were so few to the dealerships many of them would have add on features.

Also people could have bought or optioned them afterwards since its just snap in parts.

 

Nice BRG

Great looking Laurel!

 

looks sick. what did you use to black out the trim that goes around the whole car under the windows? i used 3m vinyl wrap but the top layer is peeling off 6months later..

 

Just posting a few pics one at a time taken today in the hour of no rain we had

Nice car! I wish we had the Cooper D in the U.S.

With my new toilet from Lowe's. Utility was a prime factor in my decision to buy an R55.

 

Really nice looking Cooper D, Olliesgrandad.

Same here. Had a family of 3 + dog when I bought my R55, and now have a new kiddo on the way, so things might be tight, but the extra few inches the Clubbie gives comes in handy.

 

Really love BRG R55's. Yours is a beauty. Congrats and welcome to the Clubman family.

 

New mural in Oakland

 

I picked this beauty up a couple of days ago, traded my R56 Dooper for this Cooper SD

Very happy with it, very!

 

Picked up this '08 Clubman S at the end of last year. Just got back from a 1,000+ mile road trip to Los Angeles and back along CA Hwy 101. This car can hold a family of four and two good-sized soft duffel bags. I was really amazed! Will attempt a longer road trip later in the year once I get a few things sorted out. Never a dull moment behind the wheel!

Thanks a lot! I'll try to post a few more pics once she's washed and waxed. This color is truly amazing on the R55. Shockingly, it was not my first choice. All black was. But as the old school cliche goes, "black is a hobby". And I can't stand dirt on black. Then went for white, but the white has a funny yellow hue to it. I finally pulled the trigger on BRG2. The other reason I didn't pull the trigger on BRG2 first was the fact it was metallic. I love the non metallic old school BRG. low and behold, brg2 is just damn hot. BEST decision ever.
She'll get a wash and wax this weekend. I'll do a carnauba on top of the synthetic wax.

 

Feeling very 'British Isles' weather-wise today.

 

On my way up highway 1 on a rainy day. I'm not the best photographer, and my club was filthy. But the drive was great.

 

Will update in a couple of weeks but my Clubbie's paint was severly damaged when it was transported so it was just stripped and painted. All the Rally Edition green goodies are gone, not sure if I'll put them back. I'd have to buy a side grill... one of them just flew off when pulling it off transport... I checked the other side and it was really loose... don't know how I never noticed this before... such BS.

Anyway, I haven't seen the car in person but these were the pics sent to me... looks good and I'm told it looks good but don't know yet. I plan on wrapping the entire car, will definitely show pics of it then.
