Next Gen Convertible in AutoExpress - MINI Cooper Forum

minicabrio · #1 (**permalink**) Dec 13th, 2006, 01:56 PM

Auto Express have a spy shot of a next gen convertible out on road test........

Pretty much the same as the current one to be honest, just with all the R56 bits bolted on to it

It has the R56 front end and back bumper (Cooper S featured). The boot lid still has the big hinges, the windscreen still has the black bit at the top with the aerial on, and the rear window and 3/4 look the same.

The hood is a bit different round the rear window, rear window looks bigger...

Looks smart

Thanks for the photo. However there is another thread on mini2 with quite a few spy shots of the new cabrio including some of the shots in that photo you added.

Really, couldn't find one....

If there is it's in the wrong place (this being future variants

)

I doubt any of the bumpers will change from the hardtop so seems a bit daft disguising it....

...obviously don't want folks knowing its a MINI

wonder if they'll sort those daft looking side vents out
