MINI Clubman
Is it a wagon or just a longer hatchback? Whatever, the MINI Clubman is a practical little car with a standard all-wheel drive system known as ALL4. Base, Cooper S and John Cooper Works models are available, the last one delivering up to 301 horsepower now. You’ll easily recognize this particular MINI thanks to the barn-style doors in place of the rear liftgate. Trunk capacity is rated at 360 litres.
