too much info happening in the design. Plus the mirror caps don't look too well co-ordinated against EB

What a wasted effort.

Should have kept it a simple chrome badge on the boot.

As a design I think it's pretty nice, as a roof decal, it looks a bit out of place.

I agree the UJ mirrors dont look best with Electric Blue either.

i've just thought - will that be available in left & right hand drive? if not, then for a right hand drive car it would be upside down

40 Years of MCS roof graphic?

Just wondering what people thought about the new roof graphic celebrating the 40 years of the Cooper S that is on the news page today?



Looks ok, but could have been maybe a bit more daring IMO, bit more sporty?

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

It's nice that BMW are acknowledging the original MINI

Could have been better though!

the MINI has gone...

Hmmm

I'd take a pair of the 40th Anniv. U/J mirror caps! [ If you lovely British folks don't mind a young American couple driving around for a year with them on as a salute] .

A fine way to show due respect to GB's Mini/MINI success & give a straight nod Paddy Hopkirk's win.

News: "....contact your MINI dealer for [mirror cap] availability." Right. I'm sure that'll be the easiest thing!

Ok.

Anyone got an inside track on these being avialable? I thought I had seen part #s somewhere, but now I find nothing. I've sent off a few e-mails to MINI parts folks, but no response in 4 working days,- how odd.

I got this from the German and Australian press information, not UK or US, so I don't have any part numbers.
