The r56 shape certainly suits being a cabrio or r57! The lines seem to work well i think, although im not liking interchange yellow as much as mellow yellow

Interesting to note that while the article also mentions the 'Roof Open Meter' I can't see it in the pictures, so perhaps there will be a 'delete' option

I thought from what I'd read before and an other pic i saw, that the roof oopen meter was ocated in the rev counter atop the steering wheel as part of the OBC equipment ?

I wonder when MINI 2 will get round to posting / publishing this story in the news. Next year perhaps?
