Question No Chrome Lift-Gate Option?

Hey all,

Just poking around the International "New MINI" site and saw something of interest.

If you view the Cooper S exterior section, then click on "rear" link... It shows the lift gate in the body color of the car, and no chrome!

Any ideas if this is simply a mess-up or actually an option?

There's photos of it with chrome too, so I imagine it's part of a "chrome exterior" package as before.

Paul,

Thanks for the reply.

Hadn't ever heard of a chrome exterior package before. Either it's not offered here in the US (?) or my dealer never told me about it.

Not sure how it's packaged in the US (will be on MINIUSA.com) but you can get the chrome stuff on the S there too, as standard it's body coloured (grill, tailgate etc).
