Different Tail lights ??

Is it me, or are these tail lights different to the ones on the ONE and Cooper ? They also appear different to other pictures I've seen of the "S" also taken with flash photography. Perhaps it's just "redeye"

KarmanS took the shot.

Nah, no different, it's just the flash. Here's a picture of a standard Cooper from the New York auto show this past Spring. Same effect.

(I have forgotten who took this picture, or I would gladly credit the work - had to resize it to fit as an attachment)

Thumbs up

Ah, yes. Interesting. I thought perhaps different markets might have different light lenses.

Thanks for that Bruce.

You can delete this thread if you like.....question answered.
