2016 Model Year Differences?

Steve07 said:

Hi,
Picked up my JCW on 6th Novermber (built 19th Oct) and wondered if my MINI was a 2016 model year or 2015.

At what point during the year do they change?
What is the difference on a 2016 model year MINI?

Best wishes

From what I understand usually around august / September is when manufacturers usually switch to the next model year.

I know there were quite a few changes for the model year for USA bound mini's including fog lights, black in stead of chrome toggle gates and no more mini tags on the seats, but the only change I think is world wide is the removal of the 'hidden compartment' with the storage pack. But I have been wrong before. (don't tell my wife that)

no problemo. that is most perplexing. this was my source, but I guess it doesn't say it is ONLY mini usa. http://www.motoringfile.com/2015/06/17/mini-usa-officially-unveils-2016-model-year-pricing-and-equipment-changes/
