Everybody seems to agree that the new S will be turbocharged, but how about the Cooper? Some say there will be a 140hp naturally aspirated engine, but from the Newsarchive the 143 hp engine is turbocharged:

Quote:

A 1.6-litre atmospheric engine with a variable valve timing distribution and a power output of 85 kW (115 hp)
A 1.6-litre direct injection, compressed turbo engine with a variable geometry turbocharger and a power output of 105 kW (143 hp)

So - can I expect my next Cooper to be turbocharged or not? What do you think?
