Ive had both but when choosing to buy my van I think they look better with a clubby front because it matches the rear end better 8)

But the mrs wants me to get rid of it and buy another roundie to match her Morris minor

I guess there all the same when your looking out the front windscreen :lol:

roundie = cute
clubby = tough


how about this:

roundie = rock 'n' roll

clubbie = mullet

I have had 2 mini's, first ever car was a GT Clubman that someone else wrote-off for me :( and the second mini is the nullarbor express (a roundie). I guess apart from some of the 'seriious' differences mentioned above it really comes down to personal preference... square tail lights or rounded tail lights, ,of course these days I prefer the roundie :wink:
Cheers, Bryan

Any wonder they rust more than roundies , it's all those crappy publicity shot's on the rock shelf ..... Got to wonder what they were trying to make it look like , the couple are posed as if they've just parked it in a nice grassy picnic spot and about to have lunch , not exactly the pose you'd expect from having bounced a mini over those rocks .
