| How much BIGGER can a MINI be? The next generation MINI will be bigger than the current model, that's a fact. What isn't clear at this stage is just how much BIGGER the new MINI will be! In your view, how much longer can a MINI be, and still be called a MINI, after all, the MINI is only just "mini" as it is, being a shorter car than almost all other "proper" cars on the roads (even the Ford Ka!) but how far can MINI stretch it before it should be called MIDI? Vote now!   |

| I vote no change, the proportions must be affected ie. longer, higher wider etc. Surely they can only be talking in millmetres! 0 days to go....lets drive!!! CAN YOU TELL WHAT IT IS YET!!!! |

| OK, done. The MINI will get bigger, the bonnet line has to raise for a start (for more than one reason), and the car is already wide for it's length, so when it "grows" it should still be in proportion, if not quite so "boxy" or squat as it is now. I'm very interested in the next generation MINI, as that's the next MINI I plan (hope) to purchase! |

| Why not let them in while the car is stationary? |

| I always felt the MINI could get away with another inch or two of back seat room, and not have it be noticable in its outward appearance. 2004 DS/B MCS + JCW S 4818 - Premium, Cold Weather packages; HK, Xenons, Fogs, DSC, 16" V-spoke alloys and chrome mirror caps __________________________________________________ ________________________________ |

| I agree that slightly more space is needed in the rear, but could it also be said that the boot could do with more capacity?? 0 days to go....lets drive!!! CAN YOU TELL WHAT IT IS YET!!!! |

| Bigger is better? I don't want it any bigger. I didnt buy the car as a grocery getter, nor did I buy it as the primary family hauler. ITS ALL MINE! Motor on |
