Five month wait for the MINI Cooper Clubman begins!

In case you haven't heard, they made a bigger MINI Cooper, the MINI Cooper Clubman. Last weekend Karen and I carted the kids down to Northwest MINI and, to my shock and surprise, we actually fit in one. Even me, at 6' 2", fit in the back seat in a "could make it from Seattle to Portland" kind of way. This was in stark contrast to four years ago when I last tried to fit in one. We tried a regular MINI last weekend too; the kids complained about no leg room and Karen bumped her head getting out.

And so, not too many days later, I was back at the dealer laying down the $500 it takes to reserve a spot on their waiting list.
