  • Mini Cooper S Convertible Seaside Edition

    To mark the 30th anniversary of the Convertible, MINI has launched a brand-new MINI Convertible Seaside Edition, including 18” Pulse Spoke two-tone wheels, edition exclusive Caribbean Aqua exterior paint and unique graphics.

    The Seaside Edition is offered with a Cooper S petrol engine (combined fuel consumption: 6.9 – 6.5 l/62 miles; combined CO2 emissions: 157 – 148 g/km according to WLTP), providing a 2.0-litre, 131 kW/178 hp power unit with MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology and offering acceleration from 0-62mph in just 7.2 seconds.

    With first deliveries from March 2023, the Seaside Edition features double decorative stripes in white running across the side doors to the rear of the vehicle, while a unique 30 motif graphic on the front apron and wheel caps refers to the model’s anniversary. The side scuttle features discreet graphic numbers in light and dark blue, while the rear features exclusive ‘Seaside’ lettering in orange.

    Inside the model, decorative trim stripes can be found on the front dashboard in edition-specific design, along with the ‘30’ graphic badge on the floor mat, steering wheel, and vehicle key.

    The MINI Convertible pairs the inimitable spirit of the original Hatch with the excitement of a soft top, with a fresh exterior look, 8.8” high-resolution, full colour display screen, Premium Plus pack and MINI driving modes.

    The new MINI Convertible Seaside Edition is available to order from retailers nationwide now, priced at £34,500 OTR.

  • MINI Open 150 Edition Celebrates the Exclusivity of the Convertible Kind

    MINI Open 150 Edition Front View MINI Open 150 Edition is limited and so exclusive that it will be produced only in 150 units specifically intended for the UK market. The special edition car is based on the MINI Cooper S convertible and celebrates the actual launch of the latter.

    Unique about this limited edition MINI is the wide range of standard equipment as well as the exclusive interior it sports. Speaking of the cabin, it is wrapped in Leather Chester Malt Brown upholstery, while the dashboard is mounted a specially designed Open 150 Edition plaque. Badges signifying the exclusivity of the model can be seen on the door entry strips.

    A lot of standard equipment is included here, precisely the heated seats, MINI Yours Soft-top and 18-inch MINI Yours Alloys. The Chili Pack and Media Pack are too featured as a no cost option on the model as they offer popular options including satellite navigation and LED headlights.

    MINI Open 150 Edition Interior

    MINI Convertible and this limited edition also feature MINI Rain Warner function and MINI Always Open Timer, which have been developed exclusively for their type of model. How do they work? If the roof of the car is left open and the forecast is bad, MINI Rain Warner sends a message to warn the driver via their smartphone. This happens in cases the MINI is parked.

    When one drives it and the weather is still bad, then the driver will be alerted on the centre console. On the other hand, the digital Always Open Timer registers the time spent driving with the roof down.

    Other standard equipment features are just like those included in the MINI Convertible range, namely the MINI Connected, MINI Visual Boost Radio, Rear Parking Distance Control and Rear Reversing Camera.

    MINI Open 150 Edition will be available to order this March. It will be priced from £29,990.
