R55 Show us your pictures of your R55 (Clubman) here
You're giving me incentive to do something similar to my clubman.

What springs/kit did you use to lower yours?
Nice picture smetje. Looks great. Do you have any pix that show a side view of the Clubman with those wheels? I have the same colors as you and am trying to determine if I should go with all silver wheels or if the combo black and silver might look good against the blue/silver color.
Excellent !!!! I was there in March... but no photograph was present...
New mini, bad pictures....
wifes new Clubman, whom I named 'root beer'...
replaces a 1997 Jetta w/70k miles, bought new...ridden hard and put away wet...
she picked it out, she's generally not a car nut, but loves the Clubman...she wanted a 6 speed too! what a gal

SebM, where did you get the 'Ring roof graphic!? Now I wish I hadn't gotten a sunroof for my Clubbie so I could put one on. BTW, have you actually driven your Clubbie at the 'Ring? I would love to do that but don't have the guts to. Racing veterans say it's probably one of the most dangerous tracks ever made. The great Jackie Stewart didn't call it the Green Hell for nothing! I saw an online video of it and holy cow it's LOOONG! One Formula One commentator said tracks like Francorchamps and the 'Ring separate the men from the boys. He has no idea how true that is! Now, ironically in the 'Ring video I saw, a German girl was driving an M5 around the track and she fared pretty well considering she was dodging slowpoke bikers the entire time
. She put out a pretty good lap time when you factor in the slower traffic holding her back.

Yes I drove my Clubman at the N'Ring in March... not so many people as the weather was bad, so it was much safer than you can see in a lot of video... No motorcycle this time... I went two years ago with my Lotus Elise and it was a little bit more tricky... Anyway if you stay humble and don't want to be the fastest (by the way you cannot... friends who knows well the N'Ring said that you have to do more than 100 laps to begin to know the track...), it will safe enough to enjoy it !!!
For me it is not a real track... it is more a mountain road without speed limitation and where everybody goes in the same direction... but it is so exciting !!!!!
The German girl is Sabine Schmitz (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabine_Schmitz)... the M5 taxi driver of the N'Ring... it is her job to drive on the N'Ring...




I hope you will understand my English... not so good sometimes...
