Hey, Conor here seriously thinking about changing my john cooper works for a clubby... itchy feet..!!
Was either thinking of another works clubman if i could find a nice one or else a clubman sd any advice...
Be sad to leave my works go though as i have it just the way i wanted it.

No, not yet... I love the sound of my jcw and obviously the power but could do with a bit of extra space in the boot...!! and the looks of the clubby have really grown on me

Clubby's are the business alright Conor, hard to find in S spec let along SD or Works unless you import one. There is one grey S on Carzone right now, you could play with that to get some good power, fit the bodykit etc.
An SD will be quite different to drive though I think, all torque but not the grunty rev-hungry thing you have now. Do you do many miles?

Hey Conor.
If you love the sound of your JCW (why would you not!!) you may be disappointed with the sound of a SD.
I moved from a R56S to a R60SD and a much as I love it, if I was speccing again, would definitely go petrol. Just sounds so good.
You may need to look to importing a JCW Clubman, as Adrian already said. But it would be worth it.
I recently drove a friend's JCW Clubbie in England, and afterwards I was looking them up on Pistonheads for days!
