The luxury MINI has been on the cards for a while, but with the introduction of the new MINI personalisation system - MINI Yours - the time seems right to unwrap it for public viewing.
From the little information available, the car is likely to be named the MINI Goodwood (or some variation) after being co-created with the bods from Rolls-Royce, based down in Goodwood.
It is rumoured that it will be the most expensive MINI ever, eclipsing the mega-money needed for the JCW Championship 50, with the interior being overhauled and refitted with top of the range materials and comfort items.
The idea harks back to that of a luxury classic Mini, as was demonstrated by the Riley Elf and Wolseley Hornet in 1961. Production of these high-end models didn't last the decade though and were discontinued in 1969.
