Year changes - buying used, preferred model?

A Mini advisor mentioned newer model have more HP. True/False?

Any reasons for searching for a 2010 rather than earlier?

2011 would be nice since would still offer service warranty but not many out there.

Lots of 2010's right now from lease returns.

Comments appreciated!

I don't know about the HP difference, but I think a nice, clean 2010 would do you just fine.

Speaking for the Clubman S, yes, the 2011+ R55 comes with the "prince" N18 engine good for more HP.

Pre 2011, 171 HP
2011+, 181 HP
