Posted on February 20, 2012 by Editor
MINI plans to reveal the MINI Clubvan Concept, the first premium model in the small car-based van segment at the Geneva Motor Show 2012. The MINI Clubvan Concept sees history repeating itself replicating ideas introduced by the Morris Mini Van and the Morris Mini Traveller. Limiting the car to two seats, maximum amount of interior space on the smallest possible footprint. The side walls, floor and roof lining of the load area in the Concept are trimmed in high-quality anthracite-coloured cloth. The Clubvan Concept has two front, two side-hinged rear doors and the rear-hinged Clubdoor. Owners the option of loading items from the side of the car as well as the rear. 
Space on board the concept car can be customised to suit the needs of the customerfor example, tools and goods can be stored neatly and securely in made-to-measure drawers or shelving units. 12-volt plug sockets in the load compartment also provide additional practicality. The MINI Clubvan Concept shares the same exterior dimensions as the MINI Clubman. The MINI Clubvan Concept is finished in British Racing Green paintwork. The rear doors feature heavily tinted glass making it difficult to see into the load compartment. The company featured on the MINI Clubvan Concept shown at Geneva ‘Hugh Buckingham Signwriter’ is a UK company, based in Southport which creates similar vehicle graphics for its customers.
