JCW Mini Countryman Spy Photos

It reveals all too easy to assess the scope of the changes likely to the body as much as the skin. Suffice it to repeat the formula and adapt it to the John Cooper Works Mini Countryman, following the example already valid for the three models in the catalog.

Spyshots Mini Roadster

First spy photos for the Mini Roadster: the car should be built on the base coupe and the upcoming version will have a retractable canvas roof. Honestly, with the Cabrio in the range, we would have expected the arrival of a "discovery two-seater from the English house.
