saw a pre-pro of the new cooper s at a very special place 2day and i must say apart from the ride height issues and panel gaps, unfinished trims it looks pretty good the tailpipes are much larger than the current cs and rather than a 2 backbox either side it had a straight pipe which lloks a bit tidier even if it sat a little low from the trim imo, uses an engine start stop button and apart from the top panel of the dashboard looks completely new

no pics though as it was forbidden :(

Got to say they still look like they're riding way to high, and they both look very bouncy on the road...
And I really don't like that new fuel gauge, I prefer the needle...
..and those mingin side repeaters, Cooper AND S.

Rest of the interior is very nice tho, but overall, I'm still not convinced...

Hate the side grilles on the cooper, first to be taken off and replaced with new ones once they start to filter through. prefer the S

Do you think there will be things like an areo kit and a jcw sound kit for it as an option when ordering one , oh can it be colour coded.
