Can somebody say ....bad photoshop

I just hope they can hold the line on price, bye bye Passat, hello Traveller.

Gromit801 09-08-2006 10:23 AM

Honey, I shrunk the Element. Which we have, and so we'll keep.

Tri3 09-08-2006 11:31 AM

That looks like a winner of a car. Now if they could make it in an all wheel drive version, woo hoo.

Actually, I participated in a market research study and saw/sat in a prototype of the Traveller/Clubman concept, and it looked EXACTLY like the photo posted here. :nod:

Sweet! I'm still eyeing that as my soccer mom car. :nod: Maybe I'll even have kids by the time it comes out. :lol:

Five seats sounds cool. :thumbsup: Now to talk the wife out of the fourth kid and this will be perfect for us.:razz:

It won't have five seats though. That's just autoexpress being autoexpress.

JackMac 09-08-2006 12:38 PM

Nice.

Like the dual exhaust and overall useability with this variation.

batgirlwildcat 09-08-2006 12:39 PM

I already knew there won't be 5 seats. Too bad. I don't understand why. :confused:

CDMINI 09-08-2006 04:20 PM

Don't start hoping for things like AWD and extra seats or it will START at 30K+,$'s and go UP from there, we don't want to "kill the goose" that good lay one helluva "golden egg". I am hoping for a base model to start at about 25K, heck, I can dream can't I?

snooter 09-08-2006 05:21 PM

My wife is dying to trade out of her Mini-van, we trying to hold off till next year. I hoping she'll opt for the traveller

Jahmills 09-08-2006 06:20 PM

I like it, it looks like a very useful little car, still I prefer the mini Mini. I wonder if this will sell more than than regular Mini, it will be interesting to see what happens.

Just so you know.. . . . for less than the price of xenon headlights, you can forever make sure that the 4th kid won't be your's :razz::razz::razz:

Scotti280 09-09-2006 09:40 AM

It'll be interesting to see how it actually drives compared to the regular Mini.

DrDiff 09-25-2006 09:54 AM

MrsDiff and I are hoping to get an 2009 MINI Clubman S with AWD!

schulzmc 09-25-2006 04:45 PM

My wife is planning on replacing her minivan in 2009 with a Clubman as well. Gotta be an "S" - but why would we want AWD?

DOPAMINE 09-25-2006 05:31 PM
