The Mini Clubman, a distinctive variant of the classic Mini, has carved out a niche for itself since its debut. Known for its unique styling and practicality, the Clubman has attracted buyers looking for a compact car that offers a bit more space without sacrificing the iconic Mini driving experience. Over the years, it has garnered attention for its blend of style and usability, making it a popular choice in the small car segment.
When examining reliability, the Mini Clubman generally performs well compared to the average cars of the same model year. For instance, from 2008 to 2022, the Clubman has consistently shown a lower defect rate than the average, with its best performance in 2022, where it recorded only 62 defects per 100 tests, compared to the average of 70. In contrast, the 2008 model had a higher defect rate of 319, which was slightly better than the average for that year.
Recurring issues across various years include tyre-related problems, such as tread depth not meeting requirements and tyres with bulges or tears.

Despite these recurring issues, the Clubman's overall reliability has improved significantly over the years, especially from 2015 onwards, where the defect rates dropped sharply.
