14.08.06?

just found this snippet on the What Car? site
Quote:
The new Mini will be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September, but whatcar.com will publish the first photographs before then. Come back on August 14 to see a full news report

looks like this is when we will see the finished article & hopefully get some detail on colours & options
