Munich. In 1969, the first Mini Clubman made a clear
statement, which designer Roy Haynes put in these words: “The
impression that only ugly things can be functional has
disappeared.” The exceptional car with style caused a sensation
from the start between 1969 and 1981 with its characteristic split
doors at the rear. At that time, the Mini Clubman conquered the
automotive market as a station wagon with a long wheelbase and
extended shooting-brake body.
For the new edition from 2007, the MINI Clubman delivers a
modern interpretation of the classic shooting-brake concept. For
access to the rear, there is only one door on the right side of the
vehicle, which opens to the rear. With the third model generation from
2015, the MINI Clubman grows again to now 4.25 meters in length and
becomes more spacious and comfortable thanks to the longer wheelbase
and two full-sized rear side doors.
Together with the unique split rear doors, the MINI Clubman
remains one of the most versatile MINI models to date. The spacious
load opening makes it easy to load the luggage compartment, which
currently holds up to 1,250 liters. Now limited to 1,969 units, the
Final Edition cites the year in which the legendary Mini Clubman was
created and combines the specific brand tradition with exclusive
design elements and strong characteristics.
The most exclusive of its kind.
The 131 kW/178 hp MINI Cooper S Clubman Final Edition (fuel
consumption combined: 6.7 -6.3 l/100 km; CO2 emissions combined: 153 –
143 g/km according to WLTP) has always stood for driving dynamics,
style and comfort. As a special edition, it is available in Nanuq
White, Enigmatic Black and Melting Silver and is available as a
Cooper, Cooper S, the respective diesel variants or with all-wheel
drive. With charismatic details in the colour Shimmer Copper, the
limited edition refers to the design history of the exceptional
talent. The surrounds and the upper third of the radiator grille
crossbar are in the shimmering edition colour, as are the
model-typical MINI Cooper S Blade and the side scuttles. The graphic
pattern on the 18-inch light-alloy wheels in the Final Edition Spoke
2- tone design is also finished in a tinted clear lacquer reminiscent
of copper, giving the hue an elegant shimmering depth.
In the lower area of the side doors, MINI-typical narrow lines
accentuate the elongated body of the iconic shooting-brake concept.
They are also found on the passenger side of the hood and on the right
side of the split doors.
Here, the shimmering “Final Edition” lettering
elegantly indicates the special edition, as does the “1 of
1969” badge on the side of the C-pillar. The Union Jack
taillights refer to the British origins of the MINI Clubman.
Exclusive equipment details in the interior.
The interior of the MINI Clubman Final Edition emphasizes the
exclusive aura of the limited special edition with numerous equipment
details. For example, the door sill trims with the edition-specific
“Final Edition” lettering, which is also found on the lower
spoke of the comfortable sports leather steering wheel in Nappa,
already create a special ambience in the edition model. The
comfortable MINI Yours leather sports seats with adjustable thigh
support and sewn-in edition badge are finished in Dark Maroon. They
are stylishly set off by an anthracite-coloured Piquet fabric insert
and blue contrasting stitching.
In the cockpit, the first thing that catches the eye from the
central instrument panel is the dark dashboard trim, which is framed
by harmonizing trim strips in the matte shimmering Sage Green Dark
colour and the edition-specific Shimmer Copper colour. On the
passenger side, a “1 of 1969” badge on the trim also reminds
the interior of the exclusivity of the MINI Clubman Final Edition. A
badge in the same design is also found on the floor mats, and graphic
lettering also characterizes the key cap of the MINI Clubman Final
Edition.
The standard Connected Media equipment includes an 8.8-inch
touch display in the central instrument, the MINI Online digital
service, Remote Services and smartphone integration for using Apple
CarPlay and other apps via the vehicle’s own control system. The
latest generation of the MINI control system optimizes the options for
fast and intuitive control of vehicle functions, audio program,
communication, navigation and apps.
The 1,969 units of the MINI Clubman Final Edition produced give
MINI fans the opportunity to meet the extraordinary gentleman.
