  • Wheels (haven't decided yet)
  • JCW parts
  • Clean up

I went to view a Cooper S Clubman today in replacement for the Lupo... damn it shifted!!

A Clubman is the correct term, if you called it a breadvan you'd feel stupid.

If it hasn't been changed already, the PAS pump will fail at some point, and the front wishbone bushes will be shot by now. The igniters in the xenons often fail, requiring a new headlamp assembly. The are 150 new from eBay, I have a ballast pack and bulb you can have for nothing if you even need them ( the igniter is part of the headlamp, and separate to the ballast)

Ditch the runflats if it has them and budget for the above any you have yourself a cracking car.

I would still have mine but I got burgled specifically for the car!
