Today we have two new special edition MINIs named for iconic London neighborhoods. As part of the pre-Olympic push, MINI has released the Baker Street and the Bayswater as their latest MINI Yours special editions. Following in the tire treads of the Hampton and Soho MINIs, both cars feature exclusive interior and exterior details you won’t find on stock MINIs at your local dealer. With just months to go before the Olympic Games get under way in the capital city of the brand’s home country, MINI introduces two new special-edition models to spread contemporary London style around the world. The latest takes on the MINI character – the MINI Baker Street and MINI Bayswater – will go on sale in spring 2012. Expressive design features and exclusive equipment inject the cars’ exterior appearance, interior ambience and hallmark driving fun with their own distinctive flavors. While both use the MINI Hardtop as the foundation, the MINI Baker Street embodies the youthful, fresh and innovative trend-setting style of the brand, while the MINI Bayswater focuses primarily on the sporting verve and agile handling for which MINI is renowned. Both special-edition models will be produced over a limited period and offered for sale worldwide. The MINI Baker Street can be ordered with the MINI Cooper engine, while the MINI Bayswater is available as a MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S. More at MotoringFile
Oh hell yeah. I love the little lines on the Baker edition's bonnet stripes. I'd stick a set of those on in a hot second.
