Hi all, I'm looking to get a Clubman in the coming months, but I'm not all knowledgeable about R55's. My mom has a 2012 base Clubman (manual) and I fell in love with the driving experience immediately and want to get one of my own. All I know is I want a manual R55 but I'm not sure if I should get a base, S, or hold out for a JCW; what are the differences in engines, problem areas different models have versus others, and what years are better than others? Any info helps, thanks!

 

Her is a video that talks about the different versions, and what to watch for mechanically. And then here is a link with more information then that. Helped me buy my wifes' 2011 S, hope it helps you!!
