Roadster F56?

I was really looking into the roadster , then seen the new F56 mini is coming out, and Yes I want all the new goodies and 2.0L Turbo!


I have heard rumors of the roadster getting the axe,,, and I was just at my dealer and asked.


The sales manager said he just ordered a F56 roadster for a customer, and he is seeing if it gets kicked back to him, and what mini has to say.


So if anyone really knows a solid answer to this, when they get wind
could you please let this forum know!


I'm really on the roadster kick,,, and would really be torn between a '13 roadster S or JCW,,,,,, or the F56 hardtop.


Thanks a lot.

Not concrete, but I just had a discussion last week with my MA about the various models. He told me that it was almost certain that the coupe was going to be axed and the roadster would motor on. The roadster is more popular which is why it will likely stay. Have you seen how big the trunk is on the roadster? I was impressed.

Orders are placed by altering allocation slots. How can a dealer have an allocation for a model that doesn't exist yet?

Okay


So I found out what he meant was
It's a 2014 roadster ,,, exact same as the 2013.

No changes at all.

I'm looking for info on the new full make over roadster.



And the seats on the f56 are tighter in the hip bolster!!
Bigger inside too. And dosnt have that door trim resting on the side of your bicep.
