Interesting. Very wild looking dash.

Oh, and the tach and speedo pair mounted on the steering column -- now where have we seen that before?

That looks the business. Where do I sign to get one?

It was acceptable in the 80's

Very nice! I was wondering what the new 1 series would lok like. Looks to fit neatly between the MINI and the 3 series just as they planned.

Can't handle the 115hp engine though. It probably weighs a bit more thatn a MINI so, I'd want at least 160hp to move me around. That would probably be a blast at the track. Bring on the coupe version please and add an M engine to boot!
