The trick does not work this time as the car is does not has the exclusivity as the GP. You will be better off buying a fully spec JCW</p> With the GP you had something different then the production MINI’s.

Or is it the new "mission control"? Regardless of value, many people will pay a large premium for a factory built exclusive edition numbering only 250. At $50,000 they will have plenty of buyers. Add to that all the people that want non-metallic Racing Green and don't know if it will be offered again.</p> The car pictured also has Nav, even though it isn’t listed on either list.
