The Mini Clubman has taken the crown of ‘Estate Car of the Year’ award at the 2018 Honest John New Car Awards.
Voted for by the readers on the consumer motoring website, the Clubman proved to be the winner thanks to its practicality, economical engines and stand-out looks in a segment that continues to be very competitive.
Dan Powell, managing editor at HonestJohn.co.uk, said: “The Mini Clubman is a great family estate with its split rear doors giving it a real edge when it comes to everyday practicality.
“Add in its huge boot and economical engines and it’s easy to see why the Clubman is considered the UK’s number one estate. Over the past 12 months no other car in its class has come close to matching its popularity at HonestJohn.co.uk. As a result, it has brushed the opposition aside to be named our Estate Car of the Year 2018.”
On collecting the award, Mini UK director David George said: “This award means a huge amount to us as it shows that buyers are looking at Mini in a different way. We’ve gone to great lengths in recent years to offer customers sophisticated and more practical additions to the line-up that remain true to the brand’s DNA.”
