Came a long way from reviewing cars at local dealers to now reviewing super cars and really nice other ones at dealers around the u.s. ..I know I don't know you at all but I'm proud of you and I am forever a fan.
I love Minis. I had a Mini 30 and a Mini Cooper back in England. I would love one now as a second car, just not big enough for 3 adults and an English Mastiff.
Considering your comment was posted about 4 years ago, I'd like to ask, how did your Clubman end up being? Did you experience any of the many problems other reviewers leave about the Mini? Would you recommend it?
Kyle, why is it that some Mini Cooper models have a hood with the headlights attached that lift up along with it when you open it and models like this have the headlights mounted to the front? Sly
@slyguyaction i doubt it since the lights arent actually moving at all relative to the hood and since the hood would always shut back into the same place the headlights shouldnt be messed with at all. maybe if you slam the hood it might from the force but other than that it shouldnt affect it
@slyguyaction because they are different generations. the 1st generation of BMW Minis which i think is 2001-2007 have the headlights attached to the bonnet aka hood. the later models have headlamps "embedded" into the car itself
nice review! im excited to get. my hands on a 2013 Bond Street edition club man and this review is the only thing that boost my ego to go on with the deal im getting.
@krakmxer The countryman is much larger (relative to Minis) and offers 4 doors and 4 individual seats. The center console is different but the untrained eye would barely notice. The countryman also has and AWD option. It is also more expensive and its ride is a bit different since it has a higher ground clearance and more weight
And also, minis have a second hidden glovebox in the middle of the passenger air vents, you just need to push to open it. You haven't showed them on your mini videos.
I love the door/seatbelt chime in this car. I believe this chime is in the 2015 Hardtop models as well. If only there was an audio file of it somewhere because I want it as a ringtone 😭
I love the Mini Cooper, but i prefer the traditional hatchback. I'd love to have a brand new Mini Cooper S in british racing green. Also, Kyle- I was just wondering, have you driven any 2007 & newer mini coopers? If so, which do you think is more fun to drive, new-gen or pre-2007?
@gothops154 Ok. Thanks for clearing that up. Either way is cool, but I think the headlights would tend to come out of adjustment easier when attached to the hood. Each opening and closing might change the aim...
@srkennedy95 I don't that there's any difference between pre and post 2007 MINIs. It was basically just a minor facelift. The biggest updates were a slightly updated, remodeled interior as well as a range of new/updated engines with better economy and sometimes slightly more power (about +10HP). Everything else basically remained unchaged, including the chassis, suspension and weight. So nah, there's no difference in handling between 1st and 2nd gen MINIs ;)
About how much do these go for at the moment? I'm looking to sell one; it has under 30k miles, blow off valve, borla mufflers, carbon fiber exhaust tips, and an AEM cold air intake system. Thanks!
wow, if the pink wasn't in this car, I would definitely drive it. Seems like a great car to drive. ;p I love that there is not an annoying buzzer bleeding your ears out when you turn the car on. >.

kind of. the thing is they are "girly" cars over here so no guys buy them and buy trucks and keep them pretty while trucks are supposed to be tools. There are guys and they sell well enough to keep them here but i feel like the few that buy mini over here are mini enthusiast or makes them because every mini owner loves their mini.
andrew miller I have this car. bought it last yr for $16250 w/only 27900 miles. It's an awesome performing car. handles incredibly well. love the Harmon Kardon stereo. )Liz) lbs)Sunroof. fastest I've driven on the highway while racing a dude in an older mini was 115 MPH. Won't go that fast again ever but I got my competitive "man up" and left him in the dust!

best review for mini clubman i ever seen. very helpfull
I wanted a mini cooper S but after seeing this video the clubman seems more practical without being stodgy.
Good video.
Mini Coopers are always getting better.
your videos are addictive, I'm on my 15th one.
An absolute masterpiece.
I love Minis. I had a Mini 30 and a Mini Cooper back in England. I would love one now as a second car, just not big enough for 3 adults and an English Mastiff.
I just bought a Mini Cooper Clubman D '12 w/ the Chili and Wired pack, this video partly made me do it... Thanks Kyle ;)
Considering your comment was posted about 4 years ago, I'd like to ask, how did your Clubman end up being? Did you experience any of the many problems other reviewers leave about the Mini?
Would you recommend it?
I do really like the way u explain about this car! Great!
You make me proud to be from Charlotte
best song on radio ever!
my mum has the diesel version of this car - absolutely outstanding economy, we got it up to 70mpg on the average cycle!
Best looking mini ever.
Kyle, why is it that some Mini Cooper models have a hood with the headlights attached that lift up along with it when you open it and models like this have the headlights mounted to the front?
Sly
so many mini choices... im liking the coupe and clubman

YOU'RE AWESOME :D THANKS FOR THE UPLOADS!!!
Usually, I'm not too fond of Minis. But, this one doesn't look too bad.

The countryman also has and AWD option. It is also more expensive and its ride is a bit different since it has a higher ground clearance and more weight
Can you do all the 2013 mustangs when they come out? i saw them at the LA car show.
Can you put time links to when you start up and rev it? thats usually what i pay attention to lol.
Sounds like there is some popping on the overrun when you rev it. I thought it was only the S that did that?
And also, minis have a second hidden glovebox in the middle of the passenger air vents, you just need to push to open it. You haven't showed them on your mini videos.
Very nice! Great video as always Kyle! Keep up the good work!
They have so many goodwood models sitting around dealerships in socal, so I don't think they're sold out yet.
Yaaay more MINIs!!
cant lie but that clubman is dope!!
Do any MINI Cooper models have a standard automatic shift without shift paddles?
can you do a video of the 2012 Camry please
I love the door/seatbelt chime in this car. I believe this chime is in the 2015 Hardtop models as well. If only there was an audio file of it somewhere because I want it as a ringtone 😭
I love watching your review!! :D
can u get a video on the Q5?
2 little details you forgot: there is an outlet in the trunk and you can change the color of the "blue" lights by a switch up by the rearview mirror
canu try to do a video on the landrover evoque
which mini cooper is better the clubman or the countryman?
@saabkyle04 Does the mini have a backup camera on it as well?
Would it be possible sometime to do a REALLY exotic car, like a pagini, gumpert or Koenigsegg?
Love this Mini
Can you easily install aftermarket Mini Sat Nav?

Nice car driven more by women than men like a VW BUG. I am a man and this car is simply a great car. To each their own.
they still have the Clubman but all new.
The 2nd version of the clubman sucks. No barn doors, no two door wagon look. They ruined it...

Today, we will celebrate 50th anniversary of MINI Cooper Clubman
This Vehicle Does Have Front And Rear Stabilizer Bars.

I wish they would bring back the clubman back, it's more practical than the normal mini with slightly bigger boot and those butterfly doors (y)
