Cool Mini Convertible Leaked Shots on AutoExpress

Just looking on the web at lunch and I noticed this:

http://www.motoringfile.com/2008/09/...otos-revealed/

Might be worth a look to some of you

After an initial glance I think I like it... Not a whole lot different looking to the previous convertable.

If you look closely the part that lifts at top comes up from behind wings and boot lid so when closed completely hidden very clever, I like the fact its lost the hinges aswell. Its a shame its not gonna be at Paris motorshow saving it for Detroit motorshow

There is something very wrong about the picture of the car with the luggage.







To me it says "You'll never manage to get that last case in my little boot."

After my previous rattles in Penguin I think I'd want to test one after about 6 months of it being a demo car.
