Ritey Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Not seen one in the flesh yet so if you get some pics be sure to post them up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PeterPiper Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Saw one today, at services on M5 (North) north of Bristol, (Michaelwood). Well it's ok, but, the back doors, with two wipers just does not look right, well my thoughts were 'what a mess'. Has to be said. By the way please bear in mind we have a R56 MCS already, so it should be easy to make us positive about the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davyk31 Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Had a look at these at my dealer launch last weekend.......have to say they have loads of showroom appeal. Cooper S versions looks quite sweet and my wife has talked about little else since! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorH Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 The rear doors are because the chief designer Gird Hildebrand is an ex vw van designer and its robbing from the past like so many do nowadays, the thing that BMW have done well to hide, and which may affect sales (wrongly in my opinion) is the fact that R56 (new saloon) R55 (Clubman) and R56 (new cabrio) have all been developed for them by Italdesign Guigaro and suppliers in Turin, the Oxford plant handled all manufacturing issues and BMW Munich did project management.So the same people that have designed cars for Fiat engineered the latest overpriced offering from BMW, would that put any potential customers off?.
