Special editions are really cars that are made by MINI, not after market mods

[MiniCooper]

So, that means the Mini Traveller wont be a special edition as its an after market mod right?

[Rakey]

IMO no, not unless it is sold or endorsed by MINI

The Red Bull New Mini is loooooooooovely, looks like a pick up, thats an LE not an SE but it just HAD 2 be in this topic

Maybe BMW will go down the route of 'Individual Equipment' as in the main BMW range where you can choose options which are in the model range but not in the official options list - When I was searching for my M5 I saw some pretty ghastly interior exterior colour combos using this!!!

My fave is the Damian Hirsch (sorry if I blew the spelling) at the Satchi - not a limited, but an art piece. My wife & I have considered ordering ours white and buying an entire array of colours to make a copy on the new MINI.

[MiniCooper]

what would it look like?

[lespurgeon]

All white with little dots that look like Smarties painted over the entire car. Parked inside on the entry stairs to the Satchi - don't even have to pay admission to see it. Much nicer to look at than the London Eye that stands outside.

Ahh kewl, I walked past the Saatchi gallery when I went to see David Blaine, ill pop in next time

[MiniCooper]

now we have the DD60 What more SE's will we get?
