If you need to ask....

If you need to ask the price then you cant afford it (that term rings a bell in my head when I saw this :laugh:)

Well, let me see... it's either this or a new R56 GP as a 'keeper' AND a nice new COOPER as a daily driver... Hmmmm. :scratch:

I think they should rename it "MINI Inspired by Financial Insanity"... :argh: :frown:

[MINIme:)]

It IS an attractive thing though. Although I'd have added an S bonnet.

It IS an attractive thing though.

So am I (from a distance), and I'm slightly cheaper... :smilewinkgrin: Afraid my Warranty's long gone though :sadangel:

[Mon the fish]

So is this the only S that comes with a Cooper bonnet? Looks much better like that IMO.

There's one of these in JC's showroom in Aberdeen, if they can sell these things at that price then the country is more mentally f***ed than I thought

[MINIme:)]

oh is it actually an S I hadn't picked up on that.

[MINIme:)]

hmmm maybe I can get a sit in one at the end of the week... as well as a roadster test drive, a clubman courtesy car and whatever else i can get my mitts on :smilewinkgrin:

I do agree with Ali on the scoop. I think they break up the bonnet nicely.

[Gismo]

How "cheap" is it :idunno:

wow :thud:

The bonnet scoop is said to be a bit bling and not very refined. As this model is rolls Royce connected it was deemed more classy not to have the scoop. Thats what I read in a motoring magazine anyway.

I would have to agree to be honest. Makes it more of a wolf in sheeps clothing, and it really is in sheep and cow clothing as it has wool carpets and leather trim everywhere.

:sheep: Baaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Humbug!!!!!!!! At £41K it's more like a lot of BULL :smilewinkgrin:

Ian, as if anyone who buys one of these is actually going to drive it fast... :hand: :frown:
If they do, with no scoop, the bonnet will get even hotter, so instead of being able to fry and egg on it, you could do a Mixed Grill. It's the world's most expensive BBQ! :knife:

[T5LLC]

I really don't like that.. It NEEDS the scoop as that sort of defines the S and JCW models.. The interior would be to high maintaince for my OCD that I have with inside cars lol

I like it. I would have to be very rich to buy one though. Probably would buy it and never use it though.

[MiniSnaps]

Interestingly even though it's written as "Goodwood" it's pronounced "Gullible"......

[Tam1314]

I have CDO

[LadyR]

I feel very fortunate that the dilemma of whether or not to blow 40k on a mini is never going to happen to me :D must be such a hardship being filthy rich!
But as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I'm sure plenty people will believe when they buy it that it's worth the price tag..

[Tam1314]

This is just for the mega rich so they can put it in their garage alongside their Ferraris and such like and just look at it.

[N16SHP]

I sat in the one in Aberdeen and have to say the interior is pretty sweet. That said though, I wouldn't want one due to the price and entirely agree with Euan on this about the GP AND Cooper! Plus, even an OCD car cleaner like me would struggle to keep on top of that interior!
