nice one Paul

KPKalle · Sep 28th, 2006, 10:20 AM

Good stuff

I feel like I'm actually there

Jon Chalk · Sep 28th, 2006, 11:28 AM

Great pics - What a scrum!

Rakey · Sep 28th, 2006, 11:30 AM

Great pics

Now get yourself over to Audi and get me some of the new R8

Root Ginger · Sep 28th, 2006, 11:51 AM

Less than 10 mins until showtime. I wonder what is under those covers and how long will it take Paul to report back?

Chris.F · Sep 28th, 2006, 11:56 AM

Super pics-great work!

Love the halogen lights - colour great but prefer the chilli for longevity (biased opinion of course) Interior on S is it the same as a Chilli Cooper ? Have the facings got more leather than expected or is it another option?

Olly. · Sep 28th, 2006, 11:57 AM

I really hope there will be a lightning blue car under those covers.

I love MINI, Laura · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:00 PM

Does anyone else think that the Mellow Yellow MINI under the covers has an aero kit on it? Slide 63? The bumper looks wider and different to the cooper S or Cooper normal bumper! EXCITED!!!

I love MINI, Laura · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:05 PM

I really like the look of it! Its looking good! I think I will be getting one soon! Hope theres a nightfire red with that lightning blue Olly

Checkie_checkmate · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:05 PM

I was thinking exactly the same thing about aero kit on that mellow yellow!

Looked pretty smart, shame no red sports interior

I've like the pics so far of that.

The new sunroof opening both panels looks good, overall it's growing on me

Just have to wait to get my mits on one and clamber all over it.

But Paul the side panels in the boot looked carpeted is that correct?

Any who, good photos!!

Must admit I hope its not, my budget is already shot, not sure I want to add anything else

I love MINI, Laura · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:18 PM

oh but its exciting though isn't it! I'll be there in 36 hours! WOOHOO! Got to see these beauties myself! Come on Paul its so exciting!!

ScottieCoop · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:19 PM

How cool is the Mini Logo on the rear lights. Slide 22

~Marcus~ · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:44 PM

That Mellow Yellow car under the cover must have an Aero kit! *holds breath for the big reveal*

Paul · Sep 28th, 2006, 12:55 PM

Sorry for the slow updates, there's no wireless net access here, which is a pain, and lots of smelly sweaty journos crammed into a little room with no aircon, nice.

Anywho, big unveil, only one MINI that we hadn't seen and it's (I'm afraid) much of a muchness.

More to follow later, I've had some nice chats with people from MINI design and engineering, more on that later this week.

Just uploading more photos, again unedtted so probably not brilliant, but hopefully give a feel for the car and the event,.

I'll post the link ASAP.

Oh, and no information or hints on anything "future" that we couldn't guess or didn't know already. I'm avoiding posting details until later on when I've compiled information. Don't want to start a landslide of questions I cant answer.

OK, 69 more images here: http://www.mini2.com/images/paris_two/slideshow.php

minicore · Sep 28th, 2006, 01:00 PM

Don't like the lights in the rear grill... they look a bit untidy to me (not noticed them before).

Will be interesting to see what looks like an aero-kitted Mellow Yellow MCS though.

grantw · Sep 28th, 2006, 01:05 PM
