A 143hp cooper is what I'm hoping for actually.
Dalboyne, actually I haven't found the official BMW/PSA description of the new 170hp, only the new 143hp twin scroll turbo (see this link:

It would be surprising that, if MINI want to reduce production cost, they would bring out a new Cooper model? Unless the Cooper becomes 143hp standard and no more 115hp - would be cool..
