Hi I'm looking to buy my first mini. I'm interested in the Clubman or possibly the 2011 All4. However, I'm disabled and will be putting in hand controls and zero-effort steering into my car. I was told that I can not have electronic power steering in my potential car. Apparently this is a new feature coming out in many car models and I was told Mini's have it as well, at least 2007s and later. Can anyone confirm this? And if this is true, do 2006 and earlier Clubman models exist or did that come out only recently? Any advice would be highly appreciated!

 

ALL mini's use electric based power steering
