Cheap Gas by elemoncelli

Please bring us a Mini powered by plain ol regular gasoline. It's rediculous to have a base Mini burning premium gasoline (and dare I say its even crazy for the S to burn premium).
 
A lil more power in the base model wouldnt hurt much, 130-140hp is all I ask.

I think the 2007 Mini will have a 135HP 1.6 Renault engine (or was it 1.8?). Don't know what fuel it runs on but it might very well be regular. Your prayers might have been answered already!

1. Roll-back size increase
 
2. Reduce weight
 
3. Instrument binacle IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER
 
4. Interior styling for adults (more subdued and tasteful)
 
Other than that, it is my kind of car!

AWD with a manual transmission and regular gas (which may be coming anyway). Tomorrow we're buying a Suzuki SX4 because it's only 1 of 2 AWD cars for us, the other one being a Subaru Impreza.

If thats the case, Whoohoo! But if it's all the same to you- I'll wait for the official word before doing the happy dance.

It was in the Road & Track "new car issue" which I think was September 2006.

Dear Mr Shiftright,
 
If they want to know, I want to tell SOMEONE!
 
We moved to an area where the closest dealer for my MINI is 60mi one way and I MUST go there for warranty work. This is insane and too bad for me as I cannot drive that long.
 
I contacted the BMW dealer very near to my home and they sell used Minis but cannot do warranty work. They have been waiting for a year to get a Mini dealership and so far they have not gotten it. There is no one out here so I don't understand this.
 
If BMW is listening, please hear this, you need a Mini dealership in Allentown, PA and you have a BMW dealer waiting and ready. They even have the showroom ready.
 
What is the deal?
