There are currently 4 used MINI Clubman models listed for sale, spanning model years from 2012 to 2020. Understanding the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED), commonly known as road tax, for any of these cars is straightforward once you know a few key details. The amount of road tax payable depends entirely on the specific car’s first-registration date, its CO2 emissions, and its fuel type. For MINI Clubman models first registered before 1 April 2017, VED is calculated purely based on the car's CO2 emissions band. Lower emissions typically mean lower annual tax. However, for any Clubman registered from 1 April 2017 onwards, a different system applies. These cars initially pay a first-year rate based on their CO2 emissions, followed by a standard flat rate from the second year onwards. A surcharge also applies to cars that had a list price over £40,000 when new, for a period of five years. It is also important to note that the VED exemption for fully-electric vehicles is changing from April 2025. Because the exact VED figure varies significantly between individual cars based on these factors, we cannot state a specific amount here. You should always check the precise first-registration date, CO2 emissions, and fuel type for any specific MINI Clubman you are considering to determine its exact annual road tax.

Frequently asked questions

How much is road tax on a MINI Clubman?
A MINI Clubman registered on or after 1 April 2017 pays the flat standard rate of £200 a year for 2026/27. Cars registered between March 2001 and March 2017 pay a CO₂-based band instead. If the car cost over £40,000 new, add the £440/yr expensive-car supplement in years 2–6.
Do electric MINI Clubmans pay road tax?
Yes — since 1 April 2025 zero-emission cars pay VED. A new electric car pays £10 in its first year, then the £200 standard rate; electric cars registered before April 2025 also pay £200. Electric cars registered before March 2017 pay £20.
What is the expensive-car (£40,000) supplement?
Cars with a list price over £40,000 when new pay an extra £440 a year on top of the standard rate for five years, starting from the second licence (years 2–6). For zero-emission cars registered from 1 April 2025 the threshold is £50,000. It is based on the list price when new, not the price you pay used.
How is road tax calculated for the MINI Clubman?
For cars registered from April 2017, VED is a first-year "showroom" rate based on CO₂ emissions, then the flat £200 standard rate every year after. Older cars (2001–2017) stay on the CO₂ band system (bands A–M). You can check the exact rate for any specific car by its registration on the DVLA vehicle-tax service.
How does used-car road tax work in the UK?
For used cars, the VED system depends on the car's first registration. Cars registered from 1 April 2017 pay a first-year rate based on CO2, followed by a standard flat rate. A supplementary surcharge applies for cars with a list price over £40,000 when new. Older cars, registered before April 2017, are taxed purely on their CO2 emission bands.
