Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2007 model year cars.
- N14 Timing Chain FailureSerious
Early turbo Clubmans carry the same notorious N14 timing-chain weakness as the hatch, and many family cars missed the oil changes they needed.
- Barn Door Lock FailureModerate
The twin rear-door latches and wiring can fail, leaving one side stuck, misaligned, or showing open-door warnings.
- High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP)Serious
Turbo petrol Clubmans use the same HPFP setup as the R56 hatch, with failures causing poor starting and limp mode.
