...So I spurred all 118-horses under the hood -- provided by the 1.6-lilter four-cylinder engine -- and headed to western Pennsylvania. After all, road trips are an American tradition, and, in this...
...The swing-out doors necessitate a split rear window, and each portion gets its own windshield wiper. The wheelbase is up 3.2 inches, which Mini says helps the Clubman keep its wheels near the bumpers...
