The main pictures shows a red & white 7 hole 15" white alloy MINI Cooper (just like mine, may I add ).
I couldn't help but notice that the gap between the bonnet and the top of the bumper is over 1/2" on the driver’s side and "normal" on the passenger side... Hmmm - pre production model...???
The car reg is PCU 496, providing is the real one...

Yes but did you notice how he mixed up the Cooper and Cooper S in the headings(S), pictures(Cooper), performance figures(0-60 in 7.5S + 163BHP:S), and insurance group(8:Cooper)? giving a slightly false perspective to the unconverted. Come on Jeremy get it right next time!
