but the doors aren’t exactly where you’d expect them to be. It’s busi­ ness as usual at the front but access to the rear seating is through a single ‘suicide’ door on the right-hand side. Hinged on its rearmost edge so that it opens in the opposite direction to the front doors, it’s positioned on the right- hand side of the Clubman and there’s no equivalent on the left. At the back, there’s more


access fun and games. The Club­ man employs a pair of side- hinged doors reminiscent of the old Mini Traveller. These are a key design feature of the car and


ORE than just a longer MINI, the MINI Club­


man delivers its extra By STEVE WALKER


the one that does most to differ­ entiate Clubman from MINI. They feature cut-outs for the rear light clusters that mirror those in the bonnet. Separate wipers and the doors are also framed in the same colour as the roof trim. The combination of unortho­


dox access points is certainly interesting but there is a question over whether they add anything in practicality over the conven­ tional five-door hatchback layout favoured by rivals. The rear door can only be opened once the front door ahead of it is too and then passengers are forced to exit into the road which is less than ideal. What isn’t in doubt is that it will be the Clubman’s design and pol­ ished engineering that will seduce buyers. Those who want a super- practical MPV should buy one. Those who want a MINI that’s a little more family-friendly have just met their match.
