At the top of the 2017 MINI Clubman trim ladder is where you'll find the performance inspired John Cooper Works model, which is what I had the pleasure of driving for a week earlier this summer.
It proves you can blend fashion, function and fun without compromising any of the aforementioned elements. 
The sporty looks, combined with the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo engine cranks out 228 giddy horses and 258 lb-ft. of torque, making for an exciting ride. Throw in their legendary handling and you've got a helluva cool and fast crossover that can meet/exceed your daily needs.
