I heard about the cabrio Cooper S but they say it will come out as a later release... to make people buy the One and the Cooper and heat up the market and then as a second push, they will release the Cooper S Cabrio.

I've looked through all the threads here but can't seem to find out:

Approx when will the Mini Cab be available in the UK?
Will it have 4 seats - I mean two proper ones in the front and 2 joke ones in the rear to enable me to neatly fold a couple of kids in to take them 2 miles to school?
Are dealers "selling it" yet?

bit scruffy, bit rusty, bit smelly but huge fun.

No!!!!
Say it isn't so. I am now officially crushed. I want an Orange/White MCS hardtop so badly I can taste it. But now it looks as if I will be forced to settle for another color

Thanks dinger.
Why can't dealers just give straight answers like that!

I feel a pepper white with black bonnet stripes coming on next summer.

Wonder what a 40,000 mile Cooper will be worth then!

At least he will be happy with the size of the boot. He only has to get a few loaves and fishes in.....
