Can Curt Hitch C11130 Be Fitted to 2011 Mini Clubman and 2010 Cooper S Series
Question:
Can you tell me what physical differences that would be encountered from a 2010 cooper s to mine? Other sites have said the 11130 would fit cooper s 2007+

Expert Reply:
The Curt Class I hitch you referenced, their part # C11130, is a fit for the Mini Cooper S (the non-convertible version) but not for the 2011 Mini Clubman. The correct hitch for the 2011 Clubman is their hitch # C11387, which is also a Class I type. Curt designed two different hitches because the attachment points and clearances under the two vehicles are different. No one hitch will fit both the 2010 Mini Cooper S and the 2011 Clubman. Hitch # C11130 will fit both the 2007 S Series non-convertible and also the 2010 S Series.
Both of these hitches when used with a non-trailer load like a bike rack must be supported with a stabilizing strap # 18050 in order to retain Curt warranty coverage.
