For what it is, and the market it will be aiming for, I think it looks pretty cool. :thumbs:

Mo, I have spoken to Nathan at Auto Atlantic to do an extended test drive for a couple of hours.

You keen to do a photoshoot and drive the latest MINI on the block? :rollsmile:

Yes! that will be awesome to do a shoot for that mini!! Tell me where and when :rollsmile: haha only saw your reply now haha

 

[frikkieh]

Qute and zippy !
Now how again do I get my fat arse into one of these ?

Wait for the Roadster as I remember you being quite tall:=):

Does it have an occupant weight rating? Like some road bikes :rollsmile:
My first car was a 1275. The seats were somewhat modified to accomodate me. That is why I love the e90 so much - there are far more leg room and headroom.

 

[Bemused]

Nah, fugly, imho.

Got damn,that mini is off the chain however my messing is still steaming hot though

[Twinz]

Kinda, like the new Minis coming out!! Coupe, Conv, roadsters do look a bit strange at first sight but that makes them special :thumbs:

I think it looks ridiculous, but still better that new BMW styling direction I guess.

Its not a BMW so I don't expect it to look like a BMW.

well I have to agree with you on that one, and I am guessing lots of mini's are targeted at the younger market, the problem is just the price, not sure how many young people would be able to afford the price tag (same goes for the new 1).

 

[herr bmw]

yep but in seven years will be able to buy one for my son

 

[Sankekur]

Yeah I am guessing the prices will have dropped quite a bit my then, what kind of engines do they come with? Would not want to have a 7 year old turbo'ed car.

 

[herr bmw]

1.6
1.6 turbo
and then the jcw edition

 

[Sankekur]

Power out of the 1.6?

 

[moranor@axis]

take one and put a 3l 6cyl with gearbox and drive lines to the rear i think sank would like that one

or maybe a V8 :rollsmile:

 

[Sankekur]

That would be better, there is no replacement for displacement :rollsmile:

I like big engines :grin:
