BMW powered with Prodrive technical support.
I'm wondering if BMW/Mini/Prodrive might might eventually bring out a AWD road car based on the rally car.
Nice to hope I suppose.
One of few hatches I like.

Actually I am not sure if it is a hatch now you mention it
Well what I should say is that its one of the few cars that is not a saloon that I actually like.
I like the road car even though it is more suited for women when compared to other Marques. Pity really as some of them looked quite brutal when modified.
But an AWD would be awesome. I reckon (as I shine me rose tints)

Citroen also going that way under the new rules.
Anyway, Citroen and Mini share the same engine in turbo form.
Here is the Citroen version (well, precursor to WRC car):
