I'm with Dr. Phil on this one. I've come to like the Clubman (not LOVE it, like it) but this one... not so much. I think it's the side stripe that makes it seem sooooooooo long. Makes it look more like a station wagon, IMO.
The original was a Mini Clubman Estate.
IM(not so)HO most estates look better than their saloon/sedan counterparts anyway.
Ah, so that is the AC Schnitzer-tuned Clubman! After seeing a few other pics I don't know what the good doctor is talking about!! It's much, much better than their efforts w/ the first gen MINI.
I don't see anything particularly offensive about that first pic. We all have different color/stripe preferences that range from mild to wild. My guess is that what bothers the OP about that picture is the fact that it is a Clubman and he doesn't care for its looks as compared to the hatch.

Could also be that funny looking thing behind the scoop on the bonnet. Or maybe the odd lip on the lower front end.

Could be. :shrugs shoulders:
Yep, could be any combination of things that make the AC Schnitzer version what it is (maybe even the over-sized wheels). While not anything I'd care for, I hardly think it's as ugly as implied.
Maybe eventually, he'll chime in and be more specific...
I really like the big picture of the Clubman. It's the little picture of the Coupe in the lower left corner of your post that I think is pretty blah! Which picture is making you ill?
HC/B Clubmans need BLACK wheels. Putting shiny chrome wheels on a Hot Chocolate is just plain dumb. The side graphic? Meh, too flashy for such a classy color.
