Hey guys,

Ive currently got an 06 Mini Diesel and I've been looking into the new cooper. The specs are stickied but I dont understand them.

Was wondering if anyone has them in more of a UK format?

From what I've heard you can get 62mpg on the new cooper... Sounds very strange to me

Thanks!

Only thing we really have is a UK options list. See attached.

I stuck a deposit down after seeing just a few early pics. Glad I have !
From what else I have seen from official pics it looks superb. The options look almost infinite ! and the standard kit looks reasonable.
I have opted for a Cooper as my S was not my bag.
Should collect around lauch date and dead thrilled.....the wait is the best part.

need nore input!

what spec/options.

The combined figure for MPG (this is the one most people use) is 48.70 MPG

That does seem a little high but you never know. As we all should know the real world figures can vary quite wildly.

I found this out by a quick google conversion. Other than this I can't see anything in there that is too confusing to work out.

Yea, I look the looks of the second gen mini. I'm just curious on the specs.

For some reason I heard it was 62MPG, which sounded ludicrous. The main reason I had a Diesel is to save money, but if it's really 48MPG then I suppose that's reasonable

That's the extra urban figure. The combined figure is the one usually closest to real world figures.

Extra urban is probably the equivalent of only travelling on the motorway and only doing 50mph all day.

It was acceptable in the 80's
