not shure about that front grill looks 2 big for the car !!!! but will have 2 see it in the flesh next weekend before i pass jugment ;)

[SpongeBob]

Dunno if u got the answer about the Headlamp bulb Fi,but spoke to a Tech today and he mantains there is a access flap to remove and insert the bulbs.

[OBN]

Don;t think much of the steering wheel cover, furry pink one would be much nicer

[Gismo]

Hmm, i'm beginning to like the look of that R56, in the blue anyway ;)
I kinda like the big grilles :p i think they are made to look bigger by the way the photo's were taken :)

As for the bulbs, no way would any manufacturer make a car that needed the bumper to be removed to fit the bulbs, imagine driving late at night and you need to change a bulb :eek:

Sorry though, that red interior is hideous :blackeye::p
Apologies to those who like it ;)

[Crombers]

Judgement still reserved until 17/11 , just can't see how it looks better than what we've got. Sure the engines might be better & the interiors have had an uplift (still think ours still look well funcky mind). The current clam shell bonnet is miles better but I suppose in the interets of safety sommits gotta give. We'll see :)

[john]

I think its Fantastic!!


BUT!!!





HOW!!


The hell did you manage the second photo?????

:(:D:D:D

[KenL]

Forget the banter, let's get back to the cars :p

Blue colour looks great, not so keen on white wheels or the white roof, I prefer black or body colour - but that's just me!

Love those wheels on the silver car.

Is that Sparkling Silver? Looks good in those pics.

I HATEthose red door panels though - yeuch:dead:

I have to say though, 2.5 years after ditching a MINI, I am very tempted. Looking forward to getting a good poke around a Cooper.

Your right sorry:I back on topic

I have to say I am liking the blue with white roof and white wheels in the flesh it all goes to gether very well.:D;) great in fact although the new multi spoke wheels will be awesome and spot lights.

[AndyP & Lenore]

Fantastic pics Fi.

Love the Laser Blue with stripes and white roof. Looks the muts nuts.:D

A.:D

[X30YES]

The wee thing that picks up the radio signal on the roof is missing

I agree with you Alan :D & that red interior is just awful :dead:

The front indicators can be specked up with clear(white) lenses in the headlights if you do not like the orange standard ones. Which is exactly what I would do!! :D

The glove box cannot be locked on the new model as far as i know unlike the current one.

That sparkling silver is not nice at all, Fi must be over the moon that she ditched that colour for the mellow yellow, which is the colour that i'm most looking forward to seeing along with the laser blue.

So let me take a wild stab in the dark here Fi, now your getting the Mellow Yellow and I am guessing that Allan will now be getting a Laser blue S to replace his(your) pepper white cooper? :D:p:question:

[midge]

How does the speedometer work if there is no needle to indicate what speed your doing?

[zimbo]

Fi this (http://static.flickr.com/115/280882513_36dc19bc9a.jpg?v=0) image has what your image was missing, so why is the one in your pic missing???

don't know maybe gets put on when PDi'd.:question: The cooper S was fitted with the clear lense but with orange bulb in it looks like a orange lense.:(

[SpongeBob]

Had a guid look today,And love the wee switch that changes the interior light colours well smart,also the Mini i drive is p&sh easy to use,All in all Very impressive Car, i'm just sorry i am not goin to be around to deal with them.

True, but... charging £50 for that as an option is totally taking the p*ss.

It will cost MINI approximately ZERO for different lights with clear bits instead of orange, in fact, they are probably cheaper :disapprove:

[X30YES]

Even worse ...£60 for two stripes !! I was at the Moscow Olympics for £48 ...from Bulgaria....... for three days ;):D

Aye.. that's all very well... but where do I put my nice aftermarket Stereo? Will it fit in the space for the chager in the glove compartment?
I believe the standard kit will sound alright, but I bet it won't be good *enough* ;):p
