Brenda Priddy's spy shooters caught the new MINI Cooper S testing in Europe, just a few weeks after grabbing shots of the forthcoming Clubman S.

"The biggest change is up front where we see a redesigned lower fascia that features new air intakes," Priddy says. "In back is a reworked rear bumper. Inside, we hear some of the controls may be redesigned along with upgrades in the quality of material. Modest powertrain revisions may also be in the works with a small bump in power output."
