Hey all,

Don't get much chance to come on here often but I thought this was worth a mention.....

Yesterday whilst on the way to college I say the new R56 in Estate guise! It look really big!!!

Anyone else seen one in the FLESH!?!

Cheers

Chris

Looks like you`ve seen the "Traveller" version due out possibly late next year.

Dont suppose you noticed if it had 2 rear suicide doors ?

SoggyCornFlakes · Dec 7th, 2006, 03:42 PM

don't suppose you got a pic?

JHorwitz · Dec 7th, 2006, 03:46 PM

its sooooo ugly lol!

mooneymini · Dec 7th, 2006, 03:59 PM

its not so bad, The past few days ive seen them go past on the way to work.
I have my camera at the ready. I will get a shot hopefully tomorrow......

It doesnt look as ugly as some of the spy shots have shown it to be

It looks mint, especially if they have the suicide doors and the rear boot doors like the old traveller (side opening)

OK.... (hangs head in shame), but I am really excited about the Traveller!

mooneymini · Dec 21st, 2006, 02:09 PM

im rather ashamed to say that i still havnt seen it. I dont know whether it was the thick fog or if they just arnt driving them. I hanvt seen any test minis at all so i think maybe they have broken up for xmas.
I brake up tomorrow, so i think you will have to wait till the new year now.
