Mini fans will be able to get their hands on a new Rolls Royce inspired model in 2011.
The British carmakers, which are both owned by BMW, will start making the new model next year featuring additional luxury touches from Rolls Royce.
A Mini source told Autocar that the new designs will be “totally individual” and the project is looking to create “niche vehicles” for its customers.
It is believed that few changes will be made to the Mini’s overall exterior or engine specification, but the interior will receive a makeover.
A new luxury interior trim will be included while the vehicles will also be coated in a special paint, although the colour has not been decided on.
Production of the classic Mini ceased in 2000 with BMW taking over the brand to make a number of new models, including a convertible version and the Clubman.
