Nothing other than the fact that they have a round nose...

The only decent round nose minis are the ones where people have cut off the front end and fitted clubman flip fronts...

:D :D :D

Ha ha ha ha ha!!

Big Dan is back :wink:

It must be that your fist Brick was a clubbie and mine was a roundie as I feel the opposite to you.

Roundies Rule in my House no clubbys to be seen

Sorry guys, we will have to just agree to disagree on this...

Love the square front, looks more aggressive and business-like than the 'softer' round nose front... I mean they are all minis, its just that the square fronts are clearly better :wink:

Big Dan

(P.S. I was the original 'I love da clubbies' man on AUSMINI mk 1 {RIP} Seems the team has grown on AUSMINI mk 2 - plenty of batsmen yet to come in to face on the Clubbie team)

No Sweat But lets see what other coments we get Hey.

But all of us like either a roundie or clubbie for different reasons. But this does not matter as we all own Minis and we all Love em, otherwise we would not own them

Ha ha ha ha ha ha :D :D :D

And don't we all love it!! Lets take a break from the contoversial debate for one moment and look at the car...!!

I mean, with a flipfront the guy could have both styles and change regularly if he so wished...

The engine is one mad piece of kit, admit that much for me!!

The toughest mini I have ever seen is the twin R1 engined mini...is Red and is a roundie. Has some fat arse flares on it (never seen them on anything else) and it is by far the toughest mini I have seen.

That being said. My old man owns a clubman, and I am rebuilding a clubman. Clubbies have much better looking interior, they usually look tougher, plus you can fit serious engine gear under the hood.

Roundies are still very nice though...can't say I would own one...unless it was the twin R1 roundie....that thing is horn.
