At the age of 10 just once to run the brand, the fourth version of the MINI is now set up shop in the market. How unusual crossover to the usual style of the brand new ideal gives a fascinating re-interpretation is too normal design MINI, among functional convenience 5 doors, one full size seats, the interior of a variable, and Central pleasure of driving should now be available for initial long time no matter the beaten track, thanks again grew by only a wheel.

Create a new exemplary will now be based on data from the MINI goes far from the sphere of urban mobility, incredible MINI designers to inflate so clear that can be misunderstood sense of MINI, adding many features never seen before. Creating MINI Beachcomber Concept, thus, the properties of choice and quality of technical ideas generation for example announced in autumn 2010, the production of the final expression of the will in the car on the base.

&wshyp; be used and the universality MINI Beachcomber Concept is determined solely by the activities and preferences of the user. It is clear that a large number of present and inherent in place for the car is now a brand beaches, where MINI Beachcomber Concept, in the extended traction and radically open body, provides too much unrestricted freedom of movement he makes is based on information from the start for the duration of it and and alone.

The combination of traction are optimized all the circles of power for the past Tour beaten track, on the one hand, and focus on excessive road in the open air, on the other hand, the relatively high land continually in the car.

The big roof served - more or dwindled - to cover the driver and passengers on the basis of information from precipitation.

This makes the Cooper S perform considerable better than its supercharged predecessor. The engine is mated to a 6-speed Getrag transmission.

The aforementioned 2007 redesign marked the beginning of the second generation for the MINI Cooper.
