Put my name in the hat. I was coming home from the grocery store and I was shocked to see this NFR/S Clubman pass in front of me. I had to race down our brethern and get this pic....
(in your best Lawrence Welk voice) .... thank ya. thank ya. thank ya...
HTclubman.... Me too!!! My wife calls me a dork because I am constantly cruising and searching for clubmans. We're family man! So I look around. I did think about it this morning, I've seen 8 clubmans around Orlando in the past three months so they're not rare.
While I don't yet have a Clubman (I hope to order before the year is done), my mania is such that I'm always on the lookout for one. I live in a smallish town in Colorado (Longmont), so I expect to see them only on the freeways.
However, I saw this HC S in the parking lot of Sunset Middle School on May 15. To say I was surprised would be an understatement. The manuals lay unopened on the back seat, it was so new. I think it had the chrome line inside and out, piano black trim, manual transmission, and lounge leather.
And, man, did it ever increase my covetous factor! I've seen only one since, a PW S in Arcadia (So. Cal.), on Huntington Drive and Rosemead Blvd.
Whadda dope I am...I was at the BMW plant in Greer, SC today, (for the Roadster Homecoming) and there was a LaB/S Clubman S in the parking lot. I had my camera with me and everything!
Wooo Hooo - I'm in - spotted this one yesterday evening a mile from our house. I saw them at a light as we got off the Freeway - we pulled over to let them catch up, then shifted to the left lane, exchanges waves, and off they went. They had the back pretty loaded with stuff.
As a side note, why do license plates need to be blotted out? Who cares? What kind of malfeasance could be accomplished with that info?
Just wondering.
I'm with you, but I know that enough people like to do that so that I don't want anyone to be uncomfortable with this...better to ere on the safe side.
The only thing I can think of is maybe we might identify someone who was supposedly in one area and is in another area. But whatever...so if the plate is easily readable, please blot it out.

It's important in the UK, where numberplate cloning is an increasing problem.
Some piece of low-life steals car > browses on the web for a pic of the same make, colour, etc., > checks with the number plate registry that it has valid insurance > makes plates for that number and fits them.
Now he has a copy of the car that appears to have valid insurance and can speed, park illegally, drive through congestion-charge zones and crash with impunity. All at the expense of the real owner of the registration.
