Just bought a MCS and found Mini2 site which is proving very helpful. Can someone explain the difference between the R50 R52 etc please? I take it is related to the date of manufacture?

Just found it after poasting this .

R50 is the One/Cooper Hardtops
R53 is the Cooper S Hardtop
R52 is the Convertible (all models)
R56 is the 2nd Generation (all models)
R55 is the forthcoming Traveller/Clubman

From the FAQs:

What are first generation, second generation, r53, r56 etc?

Oh, and welcome to MINI2.
