the new new MINI is due around next september (sept 06) it'll have engines shared with the new peugeot 207. the cooper and cooperS are supposed to be 1.6 turbo i believe. it's pretty similar as far as i can tell with a few things tidied up here and there. new coopr supposed to be around 140bhp.

i wonder if they'll get a bit dearer - with cooper getting nearer cooperS price. i wondered long and hard myself (my CooperS is may05 build) but went for it in the end as a dealer did an ok deal and i only had to wait 4 weeks instead of usual 13ish. new model will hit values a bit - but i really fancied the supercharged S...with an LSD..

be warned it **might** be a wait into 2007 for the new S...

I heard the new BINI is out in 2007, they are ditching the blowers in favour of turbos. I will be getting quite a few spare ones.
