Just curious to know who has logged the most miles on their Clubman. My husband was asking me what sort of service issues had come up so far, and I started listing the ones I had seen, but though it would be interesting to hear feedback from some of you.

 

9,000 mi. as of this posting. No issues that weren't caused by me.

 

Probably NOT the most..bought on Memorial Day..just hit 8,000 miles. Issues: Had to get the High Pressure Fuel Pump replaced. Have not fixed the sun roof issue (rear sun roof is crocked), and of course the "suicide" door speaker rattles terribly (glad I dont like Hip Hop!).
Other than that it is a GREAT car...am now averaging 31 mpg (Bowie, MD to College Park, MD) drive it at least three times per week and A LOT on the weekends!

 

10,600 mls and going .. that's quite a lot for 5 months. Mainly due to me driving 500 mls every week.

 

Y'all have me all beat at 6,920. My stress cracked windshield has been my only problem so far.

 

Well I know I don't have the most miles, but I sure have a lot. I've had my Clubman for 6 weeks and 2 days and I've already managed to rack up over 4600 miles.

I love my Clubman.

 

Well, I definitely don't have the most miles, only about 325! - but the first ones are quite sweet.

We took a trip from Philly to Annapolis Boat Show today, averaged about 54 mph (from stop and go traffic on US1 to at times hitting 75-80mph on sections of 95) and according to trip computer, did 36 miles per gallon for entire trip! Cruise control very useful in getting great mileage

Coming home a guy in a late model VW what-ever gave us a thumbs-up. Many others look and nod with that "nice car" look.

First issue with car is seat belt light on, even though we are buckled up and "aribag initialization failed" indicator is on. Will call dealer this week and see what is up.

 

yeah, I have this gremlin too. had the car in a few months back for over 2 weeks until a new SRS sensor came in. that seemed to fix the problem for about 5 weeks ... but recently it seems to be going on an off again.

 

15867 miles since 4/17/08. The only problem is it keeps leaving home without me. For some reason my wife seems to like the car.

 

Just turned over 6k. Tomorrow will be exactly 3 months since delivery.

Only problems are brake dust and slow drivers in the left lane. Last time I checked, service would not solve either.

 

~9500 since May...loving every mile

 

9,600 perfect miles, since March 31st. My only issue was the door sill letting go and getting scrunched in the door. My fall service will cover it. We have a new MINI dealership in Michigan in Grand Rapids, so I only have to drive 2.5 hours instead of 4 from now on.

 

Congrats!

 

at ~4500, but 4444 of those were logged in the first 14 days of ownership!

12543 for me. only service was my bad club window in the first 2 days and the doorsill plates that I had replaced.

 

Purchased the first clubman that the dealer received in March 2008. I have driven 12,600 miles so far in my pure silver/black clubman. High mileage is because I have already made some long trips.
From Virginia to San Francisco in April.
San Francisco to Virginia in June.
Virginia to Toronto and back in August.
Problems:
1. Passenger window dropped 1 inch upon opening door but would not automatically go up upon closing door--fixed
2. Windshield cracked for no apparent reason. I paid for replacement.

 

wow, those are pretty impressive road trips. did you take any pictures of your car along the way? I'd love to see some if you did.

 

We picked up our Clubman on Feb. 16th - launch day - we have just over 19K now - only 2 small road trips - one to Vegas and the other to San Fran - all of the other mileage is daily driving....no issues so far - knock on wood...

I did not take many pictures. Here is one of my clubman at the peak (10,000 ft+ peak) of Wyoming Snowy Range Scenic Byway 130 soon after it opened in June.

 

I picked Edgar up on 8/25/08 in Southampton, NY - logged over 3,100 miles over 9 days taking the back roads to home in Phoenix, AZ.

I have a blog of the trip and pics if you're interested:

As of today, I have 5,100 miles on the Clubman and I don't regret a single mile. I use every excuse to drive and often take "new" routes to routine places.

One suggestion - if there are any MINI owner clubs in your area, JOIN ONE NOW! I've met so many wonderful people and they are always coming up with new and fun places to drive!
