Has anyone got their name down for one yet? Is it even possible to get your name on the waiting list yet?

Cheers

I actually saw a virtually undisguised new shape Cooper S in white drive past me last week and I have to say that it looked really good. In fact much better than I had expected. As it is sort of familiar being the R57 format combined with a soft top it took me a few seconds to work out what it was - despite having a the same car in the same combination but in the current shape myself!

Overall a pleasant suprise.

No they are not out yet but this one was driving on the A355 through Farnham Common in Buckinghamshire.

I did have to pinch myself......

There'll be plenty kicking around the roads of Oxfordshire and nearby. You'll have to be pretty keen-eyed to notice though!
