Hmmmm... apart from the interiors of the S and the Cooper (except the 2 tone steering wheel) - and maybe the Royal Grey Metallic paint... can't say I'm too impressed... :disapprove: They're a bit... boring?
Hope they refine the decals a bit before Sept!
Sure they'll sell well tho! :D:D:D

No more leccy blue?!?!?! Looks like I got there just in time then!!! I LOVE that colour!:eek:

I suppose this means that I'd need to re-spray my aero kit if I wanted to transfer it to the next car! :eek:

Hmmmmm.

Also saw on MINI2 that there will be a metallic red (solar red) and a new dark blue (space blue), also rumours of a silver roof.

Not so fussed on 'special editions' & I think they could have gone for better names rather than dragging this little trio back into life.
Iain , is this the usual special edition sales push pre the new model coming out next year :question:
IMHO if I were buying right now I'd still be going for the standard car then looking up th goodies list :approve:

Really disappointed by the special editions when i saw them, because i was quite excited when i heard they were doing this.

Somehow, however, they seem to have missed the point. There doesn't seem anything much special to me about them at all... they don't seem 'British' (despite the names). I think the Park Lane and CHeckmate interiors are bogging! also irritated to see the preview cars running german reg plates... kind of kills the British image of the Park Lane somewhat!!

THe Mini ONE Se7en has nothing at all on it to refer to the original...
