If Pavlov had experimented...

If Pavlov had experimented with car enthusiasts instead of dogs, it would have been the sight of an original Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang that got us Americans drooling - not a ringing bell. Ivan Pavlov was the Russian psychologist who rang a bell every time he fed his so-called "Pavlov"s Dogs". Eventually, the sound by itself would have the hounds salivating, proving that when the brain becomes conditioned to something, it can produce unconditioned responses. This is exactly what would happen to us Yanks with the Shelby.

It was revealed by Auto...

It was revealed by Auto Express in issue 830, and prototypes of the car are reportedly being put through final tests. MINI legend John Cooper Garages is said to be helping develop a new 225bhp 1.6-litre engine.

The bodywork and design of the car is to be handled exclusively by Bertone, in liaison with bosses at MINI owner BMW. The plan will see the coachbuilder being sent standard unfinished bodyshells from MINI"s Midlands factory. These will be cut down, modified and stiffened before being completed for delivery and returned to the UK.

Our spies say the two-seater will make extensive use of lighter materials in its construction. Production will be strictly limited, and could be as low as 2,500 units. The newcomer is designed to refocus interest in the current MINI line-up in preparation for the launch of the next-generation car, due in 2006. It"s believed the Speedster will offer a totally new driving experience, and it"s expected on sale early next year.
