Captioned with the following image:
"...note the integrated air curtain..."https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170112/c51609bcd5a40b04ed981ff0bf85f546.jpg

Can someone please point it out to me ?

p.s. I do quite like the look of it to be honest.
I know it's only concept artwork, but I do like it.

Pete the integrated air curtain is the vent on the front bumper which directs air outside the front wheel and back through the vent on the rear of the front wheel arch 😉

Slightly sneaky article as all the pictures show the MINI Vision Concept from a few years ago, but as a concept it's pretty nice :thumbs up:

The LCI update I'd be surprised if they didn't change the lower front grill/vent/mouth of the S in particular, although it's grown on me, it's still not the nicest thing in the world!

Andrew you're spot on, sneaky! it is a waste of time to be fair, because from my quick read of it nothing at all has been confirmed, it's all maybes.

It's the same as the article on the GP3 I saw somewhere a while back with concept pictures.... until you read it and it was an Australian (?) magazines ideas for a GP3

That’s an article worthy of Auto Express. What a pile of crap and hypothesizing based on a few-years-old concept. Unsure about the bit between the wheelarch and bottom corner of windscreen but otherwise not bad.

About as much use as the Motoring File article
