Was having messing around on the Internet one day and ended up on the Mini USA website, and happened to find the prices.

Mini Cooper S $22,600 (USD) which is £13860
Mini UK a Cooper S is £16,580, £2720 more?

Is the US one a different spec?

Any help much appreciated

no we live in rip off Britain and even though the car is built here it still ends up cheaper in America.

Thanx, thats what i was expecting. Very Unfair for a car that has to be shipped across the Sea. I suspect all cars are the same but quality standards are not as high, i was also looking at BMW 135 Coupe £29,000 for us and from £22,000. Found out their getting our Ford Fiesta next year to.
