    Nope its definately for the Battery gases hence why its not adviceable to do a big boot install as this would seal them in
    It definately isn't otherwise the diesel would have a vented shelf too!

    Dear Mr Wilson

    Thank you for contacting MINI Customer Information.

    We can confirm that the reason for the grill on the parcel shelf is to bring the acoustics of the Twin Exhaust sound into the vehicle.

    We hope this answers your question.



    Yours sincerely

    Nae wonder they sacked that dobber Iain! He had nae idea what he wiz talking about. "It's so the battery gasses can vent into the boot". Pfff! That Vidal Buffoon's a fudd an all! :approve:

    Aside from anything...Why would you want battery gases venting into the cabin (and yer lungs). I'm totally confused by this whole idea cos I thought the battery was meant to be sealed anyhoo!
