I think the trick is that the car buying public read journals, papers, and now online to find out what they want to know about upcoming new models.
The internet and media in general is a far faster way of disseminating information quickly, to the masses and target audiences rather than via dealers.
Dealers are in the business of selling, rather than promoting primarily. I'm sure dealers will get taken deeper into the loop in the short term.
In the meantime, MINI2 is the fastest and most reliable way to find out what you need to know about the current and future MINIs.
Remember , 3.00 pm tomorrow, beans will be spilled
And I have a feeling you all won't be disappointed after the shaky start
