They keeping the s/c on the mini cooper? Compound charging is schweet  .
Also heared rumours of a 3.2 v6 VX before and surprisingly the handling was still niffty. only pushes out about 200 brake standard tho, so how they upping to 300 i wonder  .

VX was gonna be a lightning or somethign wasn't it, bit bigger?
Mini cooper works with a turbo would not be as shy as 220bhp imo

ye the VX220 is going ahead by a place down south, its not totaly built by Vauxhall if you get me, abit like AMG.
the companys an outside company to Vauxhall. Vauxhall give them a basic shell and they build the new version
it is going to be a 3.2 V6 and the whole Body of the 220 is wider with added wide archs.
the only reason i know all this is cos they are the daddys when it comes to Vauxhall V6 engines, and i have been on the phone to them alot

mini cooper and cooper S will have a turbo. S will get same power as now but lower power for cooper. the works will have around 220-230hp
