    You can double tap the unlock key and as soon as you open the door the window winds down, making it easier to get into in tight spaces. As soon as you are inside and close the door, the windows go back up again.

    I think that rear side window ‘defroster’ on the clubman is in fact an antenna. It’s common to see on other cars.

    Your penultimate sentence summed it up perfectly. I considered buying an Audi A3 but found the Mini had far more character, personality and quirks than the A3 which I found bland and conventional by comparison. I've had my Mini Clubman for three months now and absolutely love it :-)

    Defroster in a Clubman window? mate, you have no idea! that's actually a radio antenna LOL ;)

    I think the tracks on the rear side window of the Clubman are actually an aerial.

    That rear Clubman door is like the extended cab doors of old, where you had to close the rear half-door first.

  • @silverf56
    @silverf56 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    With the comfort open and close from the key fob, I'm pretty sure you can also do the same from the button on the door handle as well, if I'm correct.

    Hi, I just saw your video today, something that could be added is that if you press two times the access button of your key, the pilot window lowers a little, and it is so that you have easier access if you are parked in a narrow place . Due to the shape of the car, when you lower the window, your head will no longer collide with it when you enter the car and once you close the door, the window closes automatically. A query, you indicate that the on-board computer is the same for all Mini units, including BMW and Rolls Royce, if this is so, my 2019 Mini does not have a navigation system or Adroid car, so could it be reprogrammed to have them? Thanks, and regards from Peru....stay safe

    Comfort access is not required for rolling down the windows from the key fob, even the r53 does it

    Had no clue that anyone was rocking a 3cyl on mass produced level right now. Interesting! You know I like odd! I like that matte blue paint with those white stripes too on that JCW. The car we replaced with the Mustang...we bought at Baron. I also can't believe I'm 9 days from age 34 and I just learned what BMW stands for. Yikes! I'm a bit embarrassed.

    • @isher9035
      @isher9035 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Several companies are. In the hybrid area, the Toyota Prius and Honda Insight used three cylinders, not sure if the Prius still does. I believe the old Suzuki Samurais had one? And Ford has one in the Focus...the 1.0L EcoBoost.

    What is the actual difference between "Traction control" & DSC? The owner's manual doesn't mention it? BTW if you turn it off and later use the cruise control the car will automatically switch it back on.

      Quite possible. Probably more likely it was to make the parts compatible with other models as the wheel hub and bolt pattern is the same across many BMW models.

    8:16 the dynamic loads could still be much higher than the static weight of the car…

    • @TheMINIac

      True but the chances of rollover are minimal but if they do occur the windshield frame can support the weight.
