R55 Clubman Capture Contest
Finally...
I finally get to add one to this thread. Caught this one while driving home last week (sorry, crappy cell phone pic).
Looked like a dark silver Cooper S with R105 wheels. Looked pretty sharp!!!

I was subtly stalking as I was trying to get my phone out of my pocket, and into camera mode. When I got close, the driver sped up and proceeded to take off. I did pretty good to catch him in order to take the pic.

Always impressive to get one in the wild, HTClubman missed 2 Clubmans on the way home from Brunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel, one on Sunset and one on 405. Capturing Minis going the other direction is pretty hard.
Ok...Saw TWO today - one heading south on Sunset Blvd in Beverly Hills (red) and one heading south on the 405 at the Sepulveda pass (BRG)...both (and we) were going too fast for me to snap the pictures, even though I had our camera!!
On a side note - our PW/B arrived safely stateside today and should be in our lives within the next week-ish!!!

Congrats to all the recent posts!
I'm actually heading to the Grand Tetons for a four day weekend and am packing tonight. I'll be without internet access all this time
Don't worry, when I return, I'll update the leaderboard starting with Proximal's post.
Happy Hunting!!!

These are so much fun! I've been on the lookout but have yet to see ANY Clubmans (Clubmen?) in our area, outside of the dealership. Interestingly, I've yet to see any blue MINIs of any sort around here.
I guess that's good - mine will be the first! Just landed at the Port of Charleston and should be mine in a week or so...

HC seen today at lunch in Newbury Park, CA (SoCal). Just finished telling 2 idiots at Daphne's that yes, Clubmans are 'butch enough' (to use the idiot's words) for men to drive...to come out and see this beauty!! Too exciting! Took the picture so the plates wouldn't show
Parkerton - add one more for me!
for the thread, i have yet to se one clubman on the road since i ordered mine back in august. very disappointing
WillD - ignore your friend's comments! Just lame of them!
.Picking up our PW yesterday in Vegas, rasputinj spotted this one and I snapped the photo. It was NOT a dealership testdrive car, truly! Enjoy!!
HTClubman, you have all the luck: get to pick up your MINI early and capture a Clubman in the wild in the same day!
Just an hour ago, while in the car I spotted a PW MINI and then turned to my dogs and then my husband said that I just missed that it was a Clubman!

It was a great, albeit short trip! Speaking of spotting a PW Clubman...we spotted one just a few miles from our house at the end of our road trip today. I was driving, we both looked at each other and pointed and shouted...but neither of us had the common sense to grab the camera!! Duh.
Today - on the 5 going south at noon - Carlsbad area

Leaving the Ralphs grocery store in Carlsbad on Thursday I think it was..

In Alameda last weekend - pulled up right behind this guy as he was making a right turn...

In Alameda - as we were making the right turn - here comes another one - LOL!!

As we were leaving our house to get on the 76 - there she goes!!

We counted 88 MINIs on our trip last weekend - we missed get pictures of 2 Clubmans - too much traffic going too fast to snap them.
I have 3 more to post but too pooped tonight to download from the phone and camera. 2 are moving and 1 is parked.
Better watch out HT - I'm hot on your tail!!!!
10 points for these pix plus 5 more when I post the others I have...

Here are the last three I didn't post last night - hubby downloaded them for me...
This one is not parked - I swear - it's going into a gated community just north of us near Irvine - you can see part of the roof.

This is is at the parking garage where I work - kinda dark - sorry..

This one was on a side road just outside of San Diego.

So that's it for me for now. 5 more points - now I probably won't see any for weeks - LOL!!!

THIS ONE DOES NOT COUNT - it is ours - in our driveway - but a dramatic picture showing the fire behind us at Camp Pendleton last week. - About 3 miles away - if the winds had been REALLY blowing - we may have had to evacuate..
