I love both and have had exactly equal numbers of each. I have a round nose at the moment. Clubbys have gone from being the poor relation to seeming to be more expensive.

Clubby

 

I chopped off the front of one of mine and replaced it was a removable FG clubman front end... much more room for goodies aswell!

Roundnose! Although saying that, I love my clubby loads and don't think I could sell it now... Clubby turbo <3

OK I change my answer, both!

Edit: actually I think the roundnose but only just

roundnose for me  :-) dont get me wrong, i love clubmans too, but personally i think the clubman front looks better on an estate or van, as they are more boxy like the front of the clubman, and i think saloons look better with the roundnose as the rest of the car is pretty rounded ... if you see what im saying  :D

I've had both too- clubbie fronted estates/  pickup/  saloons AND roundnose saloons/ pickups and vans.....

 

...and to make a break from the above comments, I'd have to say, given the choice I wouldn't want another clubbie front..

 

It's roundnose all the way for me.... Looks a lot more 'classic' and less aggressive.

 

(Who could resist an understated MK1 roundnose with a big A series 'hidden' underneath the classic rounded bonnet ;D )

 

:proud:

I just some minis suit a different style which the front change gave me.

I prefer roundnose because i don't like change.  Although there is nothing bad about the clubbman. I just prefer the roundnose design more ,
