My wife bought a R56 Diesel clubman Cooper with nearly all the toys about 5 years ago and what a brilliant wee car
Excellent on fuel excellent to drive and what a workhorse, even I was sad to see it go but she replaced it with the newer f54 sd 190 JCW spec with literally all the toys apart from a heated screen and wow absolutely awesome car I can’t fault it and what a sound system Harmon kardon wow
My own car is now parked up in the garage and not really drove it for ages now since her swapping
Depends on what mileage your doing I think but the torque of those engines are pretty impressive in all gears
Good luck
One think to check and I was none the wiser 5 year ago is
The blood bag (adblue) will need changed at or around 80,000 miles
Bit of a cost at the stealers or do it yourself like I did, only problem I had was one securing nut on the blood bag housing
Only thing I paid out on that wee car in 5 years was
Blood bag, full set discs pads and tyres
Got mini service package thrown in so no cost there
Good luck whatever you decide
But me personally I’d stick with diesel
All the best
