Anyone noticed anything that shouts "facelift" yet? Looking at the official shots, there's nothing that really stands out to me.....
But then I never have been the most observant.
Weird, I tried the configurator on the uk site and it was for the R57. No pics showing the colour and trim options selected but all the pricing. Nice to see a real LSD still available, thought they might drop that after the Works lash up.
Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help
but smile when you shove them down the stairs
I have a sneaking suspicion that the facelift will arrive later - either in autumn 2009 or maybe only in 2010. Remember, MINI have been quite cynical at times with their product marketing - e.g. launching R56, then introducing MINIMALISM just a few months later. I really would not be surprised if they pulled a trick like this again but would be delighted to be proved wrong
And has anyone got any idea what the bike rack fitting might be all about? I don't see a tow-bar option, so will this mean we will be tied in to a pricey MINI accessory?
Not here much any more
