Available in showrooms from now until March 2012 (so there’s no particular rush to get an order placed, then), the Soho gets unique White Silver metallic paint, 17” Black Star Bullet alloys, bi-xenon headlights, white indicators, an anthracite headlining for the cabin, Piano Black interior trim and a three-spoke leather steering wheel.
The Hatch versions are priced at £1,985 more than their equivalent standard Cooper models, while the Soho Convertibles carry a premium of £1,825.
On the face of it, those amounts seem like a lot extra. However, according the Mini options list, the metallic paint, steering wheel, xenon lights and the headlining alone would account for £1,050. Buy the wheels as accessories, and they’d add another £952 to the invoice - and that excludes the tyres.
So, Mini isn’t exactly chucking in a load more kit gratis, but the Soho doesn’t necessarily represent bad value, either.
UK on the road prices for the Mini Soho editions are:
· Cooper Soho Hatch £16,765
· Cooper D Soho Hatch £18,045
· Cooper Soho Convertible £19,060
· Cooper D Soho Convertible £20,135
