Yeh I heard of that being released too......

The torsional rigidity is somewhat lower than other current models so don't expect predictable handling. Early test reports suggest the ride is very soft though.

having taken said model for a test drive i can safely say that bmw have done a stunning job on the Mini Mach II. extremely lightweight and portable, garage space is mini-mised greatly, especially in the event of a puncture. only availiable in Chili red though.
