    Caught in broad daylight, the model features shorter front doors and two new rear doors. There also appears to be a new side window and a tailgate-mounted spoiler.

    While the rear doors will improve access to the rear seat, the latest spy photos show the opening is relatively small and best left for children and petite adults.

    I'm keeping my R53.
    When is a MINI not a mini?

    Don't get me wrong I am never selling my R53, after all besides a Gen 1 GP (which is also a special R53) its the best MINI to own period. :D:lol::lol::ihih::lol::devil:

    I'm waiting for the BMW folk to come out with that slide back 'vert fabric roof like on the Fiat....you know, the one that is not a convertible but not a sunroof, either. Then, the humiliation will be complete....:incazzato::mad2::mad5:

    That roof is very reminiscent of the top on a Morris Minor convertible. I've always liked those Webastos sunroofs on old Brit cars. Seems as though Fiat has copied the Bit's with theirs. :wink:

    Did a bit of searching & the one Fiat uses is a Webastos.
