looking at the tail Lights I think it is the New Cooper. They Look More Rounded..

Looking at the bottom arm of the suspension and the spring/Shock location...also looks different.... Maybe because it isn't covered in Dubbs.

any more thoughts.??

Spare wheel was an Option from the Factory for the last Style (also a space saver...)

Like James said though it doesnt look like the Pug engine so it may be a one with the old chrysler engine.

It's a new one as it dosn't have the wrap around glass at the rear pillar.

and that's definitely the new chrome on the tailgate, and new rear lights. the bonnet also looks like there's no headlights in it, the waistline at the right rear of the car shows without a doubt that it's a new shell...
apart from that, it looks like it could be a One or a Cooper?

Any bigger pics Angus?

(wooops, almost made a huge typing error and missed out the 'g' in your name there!

Definitely an R56, but I thought the exhaust manifold exited the front of the new engine, not the back like it does at the moment :question:

It's a mongrel!

It looks like the same engine as in my 03 ONE:eek: wee black spark plug/coil thingy at the back/centre of the rocker cover:approve:
My ONE also has a spare exactly the same as that;)

It defo is the new model :D probably be a Cooper due to the heat shield to the right of the spare :question: Looks as if there is no room for a centre exit exhaust. One model not launched til early next year :approve::D;)

On closer inspection, it looks like the front discs are already fitted, and are also part of the engine install BELOW the car :question:
