The Building Of An R55 MINI Clubman

In this video, as the we bid farewell to the Clubman, we take a look back at the start to finish process of building the R55 MINI Clubman.
The footage was created by MINI during the original manufacture of the R55 Clubman back in 2007. It is fascinating to watch, especially since I owned two R55's.

We visited the Mini assembly plant in Oxford this summer. A wonderful and fascinating tour. I totally recommend that any Mini fan or owner should visit there if you are ever in that part of The UK. GREAT!!

So sad to say goodbye to the Clubman.. I had a couple over the last few years and loved both of them. Back in the 1970s my dad had an original, an orangey red colour with the wooden panels along the outside, (although I think it was called the countryman in those days) I truly hope one day they’ll try it again.

Goodbye clubman You was the best mini Cooper in history the non regular Cooper yes the comments might kill me but better than a paceman better than the four-door mini Cooper such a mistake

[@Scotty_in_Ohio]

I've got your back - and agree 100% about the 4 door hardtop - I've never experienced a Paceman but have owned a couple R60 S's - according to the folks I've talked to at my closest dealership they said the Clubman (F54) just weren't selling - I think I had that conversation after I'd just taken delivery of my 2nd F54 in six months time so I had to counter with: "I guess I go against the grain then now don't I?!" SAVE CLUBBY!

@@Scotty_in_Ohio Yeah honestly the North American market is unfortunately the most stupidest market for vehicle sales It's just I I don't understand You got all-wheel drive you got more space four-door mini don't have all wheel drive and it's just unique but everyone wants the same thing which is crazy.

R55 is it

[@failurelog9811]

I still have my R55s Hampton, so this video is very cool.

[@TheMINIac]

Glad to hear it.

[@littlepero]

Lovely

[@gamingrighthere3492]

Does anyone know how many R55 JCW were produced or brought to North America in 2012?

[@TheMINIac]

I’m curious myself. I know the JCW variant was pretty rare in the US.
