Suddenly.that car isn't looking too bad....

Sure it wasn't a magazine?

Yeah, to keep the cars equal in B-Spec, you have to put a smaller throttle body in the MINI to limit the HP, otherwise it would have had too much...

The one variant they made that I was REALLY excited about, the Rocketman, doesn't go into production; figures. Profit margins aren't going to be...

The Clubman just....doesn't....look....right. From the side it doesn't resemble a MINI at all. The Countryman, on the other hand, I WANT to hate....
