Foreign buyers have different tastes, sometimes extravagant, and therefore, are more relevant issues are the size of the car, especially in densely populated urban areas. But reducing the size of a car, does not necessarily deprive him of all those little touches that give it individuality and belonging to demonstrate the highest class.
Therefore, there are cars like the Ferrari 695 Abarth model, Maserati model Alfa MiTo, Aston Martin Cygnet, and at the center of our attention Mini Inspired by Goodwood. The combined efforts of the two BMW subsidiaries in England, and Mini Insipired at Goodwood (named after the headquarters of Rolls-Royce) will be presented soon at the Shanghai Auto Show.
Mechanically, this Mini Cooper S, accommodating 1.6 liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with capacity of 181 horsepower,

The color scheme of the car will be available in two colors: Brilliant Black metallic, corresponding to the color of Rolls-Royce and designed specifically for the Mini Goodwood - Reef Blue Metallic with 17-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels. And, of course, Rolls-Royce did not forget about the domestic interior of the car.
