I saw this Mini in Vegas a few days ago... can any of our resident Mini experts identify the model and year of the car?
I know the details as listed at the place I saw it... but I can guarantee very few people here would believe them!
I'll reveal them in a few days - so let's have some opinions before then!
If anyone has been to Vegas, and seen this particular car, please don't let the secret out!

I will say the car has a connection with a film....

Points to those that spotted it in the remake...
Now, back to the original question... what year and model?

The one from the bourne identity had a black wing and front bump-bars, possibly rear too.

As for the car, wasnt it a limited edition 2003 cooper??

[THE ANORAK]

i thought that had 13" wheels and sports pack arches ????

i'm really not sure as i have not and will not be viewing the film.

Minis were last built October 2001 so if its any newer it must have been specially built for the film.

Then again to import it in to America do they not have to be an older Mini, 70s or earlier?

So maybe its a specially built one
