Baseplate Fitment For A 2009 Mini Copper S Clubman
Question:
I have a 2009 mini cooper s clubman with the turbo engine. I am planning to use it as a tow vehicle. I was looking at the front base plates. I have read that some of the base plates will not work due to the turbo intercooler getting in the way. Please would you verify which base plate i would need. Thanks in advance.

Mini Coopers are a bit of a challenge when it comes to flat towing. Per Roadmaster's fitment guide the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit # 521877-1 is a fit for S and Clubman models and will work with the Aerodynamic Package, but not with the Sport suspension. With this being such a specific fit I would reach out to Roadmaster with your VIN and any package info on your vehicle to verify with their techs.
