Anyone who's always wanted an EB ONE/COOPER can now get one.
Prices increase by 2.5%.
Slight increase in performance for all models due to gearing and 7BHP increase for Cooper S

Not too much of a change, which is good! Dont want an old looking car already! :)
I like the sound of the interior improvements. Not sure about lowering the front bumper! I've already grounded the bottom of mine a few times on rough laybys, etc.
And what sir are you doing in "rough laybys"?:Iquote:Originally posted by Duncan Stewart

SO FAR, SO GOOD, SO WHAT ??
New Bumpers - don't like them - i prefer my "Mini-esque" chrome "bumpers".
Simpler Grille - Good idea.
Map lights replacing clock - bad idea. The current map lights work fine and shine in the back too which is handy, and i like my clock in the roof!! Its big and everyone can see it!
Lower gear ratios - good idea - car doesn't feel "nippy" enough and this will help.
New headlights and taillights - why? They look like the sort of lights Neds fit to Corsas.
Bigger door bins - about time!
Bigger rearview mirror - why? Mines fine.
Power-fold mirrors - about time!
Extra side-visor - why? - How about making the FRONT ones work right first!!
Puddle lights - oh yeah, i've always thought my MINI really needed these - NOT!
More Torque - about time.
New gearbox - why? Mine is a pure delight to use.
"Chrono package" - why? This isnt Mini-like at all.
MP3-compatible CD player - about time! I might even retro-fit this.
More side-support on the seats - good - but have they fixed all the other problems with them!?
I have more thoughts, but I'll stop now.

Big dilema..... Do I go for delivery 11/6 (Cooper Chilli 17's) as planned or wait out until late August for revised model (Henry Bros say I have the option). Kinda prefer the looks of the original but worried about residuals later on.
What does one do ?

Get what you want, I dont think the long term value will change much.I have ordered a replacment "S" and hope to get it in late June the last of the original model!.
