That is the new Mini. It does NOT run an A series engine. Maybe a Rover
K series, I am not sure. 
 Daniel? 

A friend of mine (into Minis) was asked by BMW to restore 2 original
Minis to perfect condition so they could use them on the showroom floor.
He told them 20K each, they said do it!
If it were me, I would have traded a new one for an old one.
My son recently went shopping for a new VW, he is holding out for a new
Mini.
3 variables are to released last I heard, the Mini, The Mayflower which
is a bit fancier, and the Cooper S.
