Has anybody been to the UK and seen one of these aftermarket conversions?

Article from Auto Express

Can't wait for the official soft-top MINI? British firm Bespoke Convertibles is to unveil a cabrio version of the car at its East Sussex HQ later this month.

Available in One or Cooper guise, it's offered with a choice of manual or electric hood and goes on sale in February.

Found a picture of a convertable version on the Auto Express website. Not very impressed with the way it looks. :???:

This has been floating around for a while, I'm not a big fan. I don't care for the giant wedge of a roof it folds into, nor am I a fan of it w/the roof up either... from the front corner it looks great though...

There is a picture of it in the modified Mini gallery on page no.3
I personally do not like it. :sad: :sad:
