Used 2008 MINI Cooper Clubman S 3dr Hatchback (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 6M) Consumer Reviews
Great overall, MINI continues to improve
I transitioned from a 2006 Mini Cooper S to the 2008 Clubman S, and I am really pleased with the Clubman overall. The turbo charged engine feels more robust and smoother compared with the prior years, and the improve fuel economy is wonderful. Overall my mileage on my 2006 (manual 6 speed) was around 29 mpg for all types of driving. With the new Clubman (manual 6 speed) I am averaging around 33 mpg for all types of driving. This is wonderful for such a high performance little engine. The extra space is terrific, and the build quality is better overall than my 2006.
Clubman great Green alternative
The Mini Clubman is a great vehicle. The original Mini was great, but lacked size to take your golf clubs to the course and god forbid if you had to have someone in the so called backseat. Well the Clubman is the answer. Comfortable fit golf clubs in the back, and plenty of room for 4 when needed. Ride is better than Original Cooper. It is a fun sports car when you want to turn it on. Sport mode adds to the fun to have ready on power. Through daily commuting of 75%/25% highway to city, I have averaged 32 MPG with the automatic.

Clubman worth the extra space!
Great vehicle. I always wanted a Mini but needed to be able to transport my two boys in the back. The Clubman was the answer. Excellent pick-up; excellent grip; great 6 speed tranny; and you gotta love the barn doors in back. Gas mileage is, of course, great; 28 city and 33 highway. The ride is also much more secure and settled on the hwy with the longer wheelbase vs the Cooper coupe.
Cooper Clubman
Clubamn is an excellent drive. Use for business, wanted regular Mini S but tools would not fit. Clubman gives plenty of room. Great mileage, even with super unleaded. Drive 400+ miles on a tank of gas. Hard to stuff more than 12 gallons when empty. Fun to drive, have to be careful not to get too fast, ride is so smooth that speed can get away from you.
4 Turbos and multiple other problems
2008 Clubman S. Has almost every option on it and garage kept.Well cared for, one owner. I have had FOUR yes FOUR turbo's replaced. The fuel injectors replaced and the sunroof adjusted 4 times for excessive noise. I have had it in the shop in San Antonio,Houston and Austin. Customer service is terrible because they do not communicate with me. I have to call them to find out what the issue is.I have asked for some assistance from Mini and they will not help. They make it sound as it's my fault the car is always in the shop. I have not driven the car for 2 consecutive days since Sept 17th. Stay AWAY from mini!
