Mini Clubman

Rear door on the wrong side

-

The first Bmw-era Clubman had just three side doors. The single rear side door was called the Clubdoor and it was on the right-hand side of the car – correct for left-hand-drive markets like Germany and the US but not for, to take one example, the UK, where it was made. A leftmounte­d Clubdoor would have been possible if Mini had gone to the trouble and expense of relocating the fuel tank, but it declined to do so.
