i think the new mini is retro but very modern at the same time! and as its an "S", it has an eaton supercharger which is just groovy!

They do have a digital speedo just under the rev counter which you end up using rather than the actual centre speedo.

Not a big fan of them. Mainly because of a lot of the drivers i meet on the roads. They have a lot of top end speed though. One of my friends reports that one overtook him in his S/C'd + turbo micra. Off the limiter in 5th and it went past :o.
