What It Is/ Who It’s For
BMW’s 2012 3 Series sedan is an everything-for-everyone entry-level luxury car that draws praise for its balance, poise, premium features, and everyday usability.
Best Thing
There’s no compromise with this car being utterly sporty, yet practical and frugal, too.
Worst Thing
To get many of the premium features, you have a splurge on expensive option packages. Also, the Modern line’s interior wood inlays are made from ugly sticks.
Snap Judgment
The previous BMW 3 Series was already the best all-around car in its segment. The 2012 3 Series sedan is simply better.
There's nothing really innovative or interesting, for that matter, about the Clubvan as the conversion from passenger model to van is pretty straightforward with Mini simply eliminating the rear seat bench and boot floor to create a continuous loading area.
Mini's designer also added a partition to separate and safeguard the front passengers from the cargo area and covered up the rear side windows. Other than that, there are no differences between Mini's breadvan study and the regular Clubman.
It remains to be seen if the British company will introduce a production version of the Clubvan.
