I mean really. For the RR version of the MINI, BMW should go whole hog and include those little drop-down veneer tables that fold into the front seat backrests. And while they're at it, how about a bigger steering wheel?</p> I think it’s great, but the black mesh net on the drivers side seatback has got to go. I mean really.

But bespoke for the RR model would mean not available for the masses I suppose. I see someone at MINI feels for the car to look it's best the unpainted arches have to go.

It's hard to tell being so shinny and black. I do like the leather interior. This would be a great option for future MINIs.</p> I believe it’s a auto unit, at closer look.
