It may be my eyes, but it looks to me like you've fitted 10" wheels on the Clubman - is that the case?
If it is, what brakes have you fitted?

Definitely not a standard Mini fitment...
What size are those discs, and whose calipers are those(apart from "yours")?

Thanks. Never experienced an original Cooper S, but as far as I can recall they only ever used 2 pistons per caliper. Servo?

These are aftermarket. No servo, Im happy to push the pedal a bit harder.

I had a Cooper S brake set-up on my old Mayfair without the servo, and they were the best Mini brakes I had ever had. EBC blackstuff pads, grooved discs & braided hoses too. Awesome.
