Glad they FINALLY decided - LOL!! I was hoping for "Traveller" - that way we would have a Morris Minor Traveller and a MINI Traveller...Oh well - we're still going for it no matter what they call it....

You never know they might even end up with a special edition Clubman Traveller.

I'm still hoping they use traveller. I guess it's a done deal - but Traveller or Estate would have been better than Clubman

They can't use Traveller as BMW doesn't own the name so hoping for a change is a waste of time.

Estate would have been confusing for the US market and would have sounded stupid IMO.
