IMHO the roundnose is the way to go with a sedan, but a clubbie with a van....

Well I would say that i would have to take a roundie as we have own them in the family for 20 + years. A clubbie done up the right way looks tough but the classic look is for me.

A Bloody Mini

1970 Mini K, 1380cc, 1.75 HIF SU, 30 70 Cam, 2" Zorts
1969 Mini K, Stock Standard and Orginal. (Slow as Hell)

All Mini's are great. Roundies are cute and smiling, clubbies are tough and aggressive. I wouldn't mind having either Mini in my driveway.

i can't go past a clubbie they look tough and go good to match roundie to but to first look at it it looks soft gentle and looks like it will just cruise along merily and pass the time slowly but they can be done up to look great but don't really matter with clubbies they look tough always!!!

GO CLUBBIES

i like both but prefer roundies

Thats a bit harsh... coming from the person who butchered theres to put a rover grill on it....IMO

For me in has to be a roundnose. But then, I own one! In fact, when I was looking to buy I passed up an excellent Clubman, ground up rebuild with 1275/weber etc, simply coz it was a Clubman. Very much regret that, but I'm happy with what I've got.
Must admit tho, Clubmans do look tough with big flares and lowered, but I reckon a standard Clubman without flares and those god awful hub caps looks crap

Anto

Im a clubman owner and i vote ha ha, but seriously i think both are cool and would own either one and be proud but right now a clubbie is what i have so thats is what ill vote for!!

Butchered? It would take me 5 munites to change it back over.

As for why, just wanted something a bit different

They didn't base the new mini on the Clubman for a reason, they based it on the orignal and iconic roundnose mini.

I didn't want to start an argument, it's all a matter of taste, each to their own.

The Clubbys have been good to me, but gotta stick with the roundy look now. You just cant beat the original !

I must admit I used to like the round nose... but I have been converted!
Now... I actually dont mind the clubby.
as the sign says... Clubbies are mini's too!!!!
