ProDrive MINI Countryman WRC Delayed But Under Development

According to Autosport, as reported by MotoringFile, Prodrive has been developing the parts for a "theoretical new generation World Rally Car" based on the Countryman. However, due to delays in the debut of the Countryman (Prodrive believes will be at the Paris Auto Show and not at March's Geneva Motor Show) development has been slowed as the result of a lack of a vehicle for parts fitment and testing.
