BMW last week debuted the production version of its 2007 Mini Cooper at the Oxford Plant late last week, according to MotoringFile. This would suggested that the next-generation R56 Mini is very close to a public unveiling. Plant Director Dr. Anton Heiss reportedly said the new car is “even more go-kart like” despite its increased size. Mini has previewed the new model with the 2007 Mini Rallye Monte Carlo Concept and 2007 Mini Traveller Concept.
