I think I've finally made up my mind

Clubman S AB/AB roof, silver pillars. silver racing stripes, manual, CW package, roof rails, mud flaps, 17"Web Spokes, alarm system, and Cruise Control. I'm considering the LSD as we will be moving to Cleveland next summer.

i wish I could figure out how to down load the image off the config. it won't let me for some reason.

that really sounds awesome ... AB with Webspokes was always one of my faves.

Good luck!

Ooh, niiice!

I'm not sure why the configurator isn't letting you download your pic. That's weird.

***********************************************

Yeah, I just went on there and it's not working for me either. Maybe a glitch in the system? However, the "brochure" option worked, so maybe you can try that, unless you were trying to get a jpeg. If that's the case, give it a day or so, maybe they will fix the bug.

.

While BRG is nice, it WILL give the car a completely different vibe.

AB/AB with Silver C Pillar and Racing Stripes will be super sporty ... BRG more of a "classic" vibe.

i prefer the racing stripes. My husband suggested Bonnet stripes. but instead of making them silver, using the black, (with the thin silver outline) so you only see the silver outline of the stripe.

this is harder than picking out names for our kids.

AB/AB/S is a great color scheme. I can't wait to see you Clubman (and I know you feel the same way).

LSD is a great option and is worth getting. IMHO!

The car comes with an engine immobilizer - which is recognized by insurance companies for a discount. Many people who got the alarm system had regrets. Didn't feel like they got their money's worth.
BTW it's the same price as the LSD.
