Can't see what sort of back window the Open has ... Hopes it's glass because plastic will look cheap and nasty and won't last five minutes ... Do you know what it is?

Heres the S version cabrio.

dinger · Aug 1st, 2003, 10:16 AM

And another.

Rakey · Aug 1st, 2003, 10:42 AM

Nice one Dinger, good shots!

Think you must be the cabrio expert on the site? Or the junkie, which ever way its a good looking car, can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Kinster · Aug 1st, 2003, 10:47 AM

I'll sell you my old copy of Autoexpress with S cabrio pics in it if you want Rakey

Nice try, but think I can live with out it. Maybe try putting it on e-bay, there are many fools on there that will even buy a bucket of water.

Apparently the water has to be hot

Doesn't it look a bit like a pram? Where's all the fancy technology that other manufacturers employ to fold away the hood?

It sure does! Most cabriolets these days aren't hatchbacks!

Hi,

I just put my deposit down on a Mini open yesterday, and they seem to think the Cooper S will come out a year later, ie May 2005!

Think I will have to do with another cooper!
cheers

What information had the dealer got on it? Any official photo's yet? Or confirmed prices?

If they hadn't got any of that when do they expect to be able to give it to you?

There are no official photos from BMW yet (on their press site for example).

Didn't I hear that the car would be launch at the Geneva show in the new year - I guess all the official info material would therefore be available after then?

Rakey · Aug 13th, 2003, 03:19 PM

Fair enough, well hope you are very happy with your purchase! Were you able to choose colour yet, or is that later on with all your other options?

PB · Aug 13th, 2003, 03:26 PM

No my dealer had no info, he actually recommended this site (And mini.com) for information! He doesnt expect any real info before next year.
