Saw a new mini on the M25 last week - it was X-reg looked very well used and was dirty (matt) black with a white roof.
It also had a bonnet scoop just above the normal grille. I guess that this is a finalish test car - supercharged/turbocharged.
Should be a hoot - still fairly small, although Golf Mark I size rather than VW Oglop, or whatever the smallest one is called now!

The test cars have been around for quite a while now, i see them in Stratford quite often.
My Brother worked on the Mini up until Rover was sold, and did lots of mileage testing (inc Supercharged). He was well impressed, and that was six months ago!!!.
