When I prepare for this test, I thought to myself how easy it will be to describe it. Just take the Mini Cooper S test and records present the Clubman is longer than 8 cm. In purely practical it is the only difference between "normal" and the Mini Clubman. And yet, no. Clubman different m instead of 8, but what about 50 centimeters, figuratively, of course. It simply is the same Mini, only better. And now for the entire row. Details of the Clubman appeared soon after daylight saw the second generation of the new Mini. The Germans m (who now owns the famous British brand) realized that the Mini, despite the increased price, like very many. And to please m even greater troop Mini Warriors needed a car which not only in theory but also in practice may sit more than two people. Mini One (the so-called "small" Mini) sit in the back is not possible, unless it is not sitting in front of Bart Simpson or SpongeBob m SquarePants ... There can only put down a suitcase, because it does not fly funny little while in the boot.
But as it is with the Clubman? Or eight centimeters is enough to solve these problems? Incredibly, yes. This eight centimeters at the expense of the emergence of the rear legroom, and the bags in the trunk. In addition, all of this without sacrificing m style. Here, though, is "broken lances most" because of the Clubman design dispute ends. For some like it, others can not be accepted. I like it. Even very. Mini has become m somewhat m masculine without losing Hobbit attraction. Especially when you open the trunk split door seems that once displayed the Seven Dwarfs, which will start to load grubbed gems. Playfully, fifīgi, but at the same time practical.
Paaugoties Clubman has gained two important features that set it apart from the One. First of all they have shared the rack on the back of the door, and half door on the side. I will start with the most interesting - half door. This solution uses carmakers already some time ago, the court, it is not too popular. Half door is a small door that is located behind the front door and opens to the opposite side. They are designed with a single purpose - to facilitate boarding behind. Typically, the half door in one side only, as is the case here.
At first sight, of course, it seems that no great benefit to such a solution m would not, but this is a misconception. These dozen centimeters acquired space is enough to embark on the back without a problem, one or two passengers. The main mix sequence Hinge. Unfolding the problem will not be - small half door can not be opened until the big open - opening the shut but be careful not to turn a large, otherwise small crash into them with a painful bang.
Once we were inside, sitting is convenient. m Of course not so large as small. This, however, is the Mini rather than bus. If the front is not too izlaidušies, then the back even further on the way will be able to sit two adults. In addition, they will be able to comfortably enjoy a coffee or something else, because they have three cup holders. In front of the two. In one well-established himself ash interrupted, but we immediately throw away the trash. Not to smoke in the car! Now time to look at the rack. Also here is a pleasant change. m First of all, the double doors. They have large comfortable chrome handles behind m which they are comfortable to open. True, there is nothing in particular should m be monitored as pressing the door slowly opens itself wide open. First of all, the right side, then the left. Elaganti. In addition, the interesting option to place hinges behind the headlights (they remain motionless) will always smile.
Close also happens gradually. First left, then left. Here, too, it is important not to confuse, especially because it is closed by force. If sajauksiet - right will dent. Immediately both add another minus these doors. Dirty time it is impossible to open and close the hand cleaner way. Glauns handles are splash with dirt on all sides, so useful to have the opportunity to open the doors with the remote control. Shut close, unfortunately, no remote control will not help, as will jāsmērē m hands. What awaits us in the trunk of the same? First is already m quite a lot of space. There's certainly plenty of space for suitcases if not all four, then two riders set. In addition, for an additional charge, you can rack fitted m with a double bottom. Thus, the "rattling" property can be hidden at the bottom of the surface leaving only the most outstanding, such as shopping bags, which can be easily m fastened on hooks. There is also the possibility of the seats recline m to bring something bigger. For washing machines and fridges both nesapņojiet, but the snowboards and baby strollers m fit. Furthermore, it is also the possibility of imposing a roof rack. Recreation lovers alike can paciesties a little m bit more, because the horizon is already noticeable Mini "off-road" version.
How then Clubman behave on the road? OK. This car is the Cooper S version (the dealer knows how to please journalists and potential buyers hearts ...), which is fiercest model with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine. This engine has 175 horsepower, which is a lot. Really a lot, considering that this is still a small car. Driving sensations are very similar to those of "little" Mini Cooper m S. On the road it stays
