Model Year 2017 Mini's - anyone knew when on sale?

[signalgreen]

So I know that Mini have fallen into this US driven fashion of having the next years model launched in the second half of the previous year.

The "2017 models" should therefore be launching some time after August - does anyone know when the specs. will be released and they go on sale for orders to be taken?

Thanks!

17MY builds are beginning production sometime in July for the US, so I'm sure that will apply for UK builds too.
