I have a solution for you to carry bikes on your 2020 Mini Clubman, but the Thule Camber Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # TH9058 requires a trailer hitch on the rear of your vehicle; I'm not aware of an aftermarket hitch that is available to fit on the 2020 Mini Clubman. For this reason, the only option to carry bikes on your Mini Clubman would be with a roof rack and roof rack mounted bike carrier.
The correct roof rack system for your 2020 Mini Clubman will depend on whether you've got a naked roof or the flush mounted side rails. If you've got a naked roof I recommend using the Thule Roof Rack for Mini Clubman using parts # TH711420, # TH710501 and # TH145006. If you've got the flush mounted side rails then the correct Thule parts are # TH711200, # TH710601 and # TH186039.
Once you installed a roof rack then you can get a roof mounted bike carrier like the Swagman Race Ready Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On # S64705, which will clamp on the Thule aero bars mentioned above. This carrier folds down completely when you're not using it, so you can likely leave it on the vehicle when pulling into the garage and not worry about breaking anything.
I've linked some review videos of these parts for you to check out as well.
