As if our World Exclusive Cooper S Convertible pictures were not enough…

While we were in London snapping a MINI Cooper S Convertible, a lucky motorist in South Africa was busy snapping shots of an ‘05 spec MINI Cooper Convertible at a petrol station. Thanks to www.motoring.co.za for permission to reproduce the following images:

While not as revealing as our own Cooper S photos these show some other nice details. The new bumper trim for the Cooper/One can bee seen lurking beneath some
black tape, the rear fog light is centred and low, and the new lights are also there to be seen (while slightly disguised). You can also see the boot latches on this Cooper are chromed, and the “high level” brake light has been very neatly integrated into the chrome “waist band” of the car.

Put these together with our own detailed pics of the ‘05 changes as well as the Convertible S images and the pieces of the jigsaw are all finally falling into place, before the official unveiling at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show this March.
