The very first spy shots of the Mini Roadster testing on Chinese roads. The Roadster will be listed on the China car market in March, debut is expected at the Beijing Auto Show in April. Engines for the Chinese market: 1.6 and 1.6 turbo.

The Mini and Mini Cabrio have been a huge success for BMW in China. Young and affluent cooliebooliebabes snap ‘m up like hot rice. The Mini Clubman and Countryman even seem to attract male buyers and that indeed is exactly what BMW hoped for. The Roadster will likely make the girls hot again but there is still that weird Mini Coupe for the (metrosexual) boys.
