Whoa...had no idea they would have a convertable there!

I've only seen the convertable with the top down in person...so anyone that's seen it with the top up - is the rear window glass or plastic?

Didn't see the Cabrio with the top up, but the rear window IS glass. I have to say that I liked the Cabrio a lot...and that the orange color is very cool. It was exciting to see it in person.....what a pleasant surprise for everyone at a wonderful Dragon Meet!

On this Roadfly thread, Normalizer just posted a link to his Dragon Run pics:

Including a close-up of the dials which clearly show oil temp & pressure, water temp, and fuel level.

Because this is a pre-production model with the optional guage pack in place of the speedo, there is actually NO clock in this particular MINI.

It is supposed to show up on the digital display.
