    Hmm.. anyone else notice that the swirly Camo pics of the car on the road has 5 stud wheels? hmmm...
    No swapping of standard mini alloys there then if it's loosely based on the X1...

    Looks like a Clubman Allroad sort of thing to me.

    Not a fan, even bigger than standard Mini wheel gap

    Latest renderings

    Reading the file you linked, I dont think its gonna be much use for a childminder - only seats four with suggestion there might be one that seats five.

    That's not pretty at all. Might have a cool interior but that outside is just down right horrible.

    Dear Lord, If you wont make me skinny, please make my friends fat-very Fat.

    She doesn't have that many brats at one time it's more about access to rear seats and space for a pram

    Everyone slated the clubman before it was released as it was 'ugly' but its grown on me and think this will fill the gap with people who love mini but go on to have kids and dogs etc.

    From Factory JCW to Audi TT Quattro - Might be back one day!

    I'm kind of on the fence. I've seen some pics which are excellent, and I've seen some pics which are hideous. Those pics are not bad. Shame it has that rubbishy swirly paint job but it's obviously to conceal the finished look. Although I guess it could be a factory option for some.

    If it end up looking like the decent pics I've seen I will deffo be wanting one. But I'd be waiting for a year or so after release so they can make it work properly first.

    That was my thoughts too. Wonder if they will do a sporty version?

    was speaking to Victoria at Eastern yesterday who saw a version of the countryman in May. Two seat option sounds good.

    Can't wait.
