just thought i would let you know incase you havent seen it, not up to date with the cabrio so i dont know if its been posted or that.

But check it out if you see it on the shelf

Which month is it on the cover?

KJ_daGreenMini · Sep 17th, 2003, 12:24 PM

nice to see some pics of the real one for a change and not the bespoke comversion ... gotta see it in person before I make finally judgement on how much I don't like it

so.. you don't like it!
me neither (for now), because in my opinion the 'capote' spoils a lot mini's shape
wonder why mini didn't think to an iron roof like slk/206cc... or did they and just abandoned the idea???

Option number two.

rinos69 · Oct 16th, 2003, 01:31 PM

let me guess, Paul...
lack of space?
or just too expensive??
the magazine from wich i took those photos claimed a price around 25.000 €.
astounding.

mini mad · Oct 16th, 2003, 02:15 PM

my guess would be thet the shape of the roof wouldn't allow for it

Rob. · Oct 16th, 2003, 08:02 PM

I think there is still a possibility of a 2 seat roadster being produced.
And who knows it may have a metal folding roof. Now that would be worth waiting for.

here is another pic found at www.autoexpress.co.uk

That's an edited version of a photo that's been doing the rounds for some time now.
