Give it a bash and let us know! Our Minis stopped production in 2001 so we have no idea. 

 

I would say no though as R53 and R56 Minis are totally different inside and out.  :lol:

Anything can be made to fit. There are people on here with Ka dashes in their minis. Give it a go, what's the worst that can happen?

Where are you going to find a 2014 Cooper S interior? the car has only been on sale a month or so and its unlikely you will find one breaking.


And it would be a right pain to get it to all fit, the car itself is a lot bigger, the seats will fit I would imagine (with mods to the mounting) but the dash, door cards, headlining, carpet, centre console and rear seats will all be the wrong size and shape plus all the electrics wouldnt work so you would have to graft the dash electrics like clocks and things from your 2006 car (the dash in the 07+ cars was linked to the immobiliser and so it would be the same for the 2014 car

The front seats might bolt in to the standard mounts on the floor. However, the seatbelt pre tensioners are mounted to the seats on on later cars and not ( as far as i am aware ) on earlier models. The wiring might be different too. The back seats wont fit as the earlier car is alot narrower.

 

I assume the 2014 model you are on about is the r56 and not f56?

Thats the F56. The R56 S was available earlier in 2014.

I was assuming he was referring to the F56 since the R56 wasnt made for long this year (till feb wasnt it?)
