Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Mini has revealed the latest version of its Clubman estate: an efficient new three-cylinder diesel. With 116bhp and TwinTurbo tech, the 1.5-litre One D model produces 99g/km of CO2 emissions and 74.3mpg. These figures will benefit private and business users alike, and the latter will pay only 17% Benefit In Kind tax.

There’s a choice of manual or automatic gearboxes, both with six speeds, while spec includes Mini Navigation and Mini Connected. The Chili pack enhances this with LED headlights, fog lamps, park distance control, part-leather heated sports seats and auto air-con. Those Clubman trademark twin back doors give access to a 360-litre load area.

The Mini One D Clubman will arrive in April, starting at £21,375. The automatic costs £1500 on top.
