I've just visited a site called mybeautifulmini.com (http://www.mybeautifulmini.com/index.php?main_page=index)
On the main page there is a Flash animation, if you watch it long enough there are some images that look like they are based on the 2007 MINI, see attached samples.

There were three MINI Concepts on the 'Traveller' theme produced for shows in Geneva, Tokyo and Detroit. That is either Geneva or Tokyo.
They show the way MINI is heading with the Traveller model due in 2007.

This is the "Traveller" concept. It will see the light of day 'within the next three years':D

Loads of photos of the concepts can be found in the MINI2 Galleries, here: http://www.mini2.com/galleries/showgallery.php/cat/2 (and lots of text about them in the news area).

Actually i like it! ;)
But I don't need the interior space so will stick to hatches or convertibles (or speedsters if such a thing ever materialises)...

Indeed I'll stick with hatches as well, but that prototype looks hawt!
Why oh why makers never mass produce the protos? :rolleyes:
