Just reading this (http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/motoring/road-tests/mini-sd-2280785.html) article on the MCSD, and was a bit surprised by this bit: "... This SD has all the visual kudos of the petrol S, including the air intake in the bonnet which in this case is real (it feeds the turbocharger's intercooler)...". Is this really the case or is the author getting confused with the mkI petrol S?

The scoop on a MCSD does nothing and is only there for effect.

Just what I thought.
