Sounds like the BMW range of optional extras is making its way to the mini.
I'm lucky enough to be driving a 2001 model 330ci (new 3L inline 6 coupe -
170kw & 300nm) with the Harman/Kardon upgraded stereo etc.  Very very tasty.

Really?  The web site rates the cooper at 85kw max output with a 0-100 Km
(0-60mph) time of 9.2 seconds.  Is there a higher spec'ed jobby that isn't
listed?
