*2012 BMW 1-Series Hatchback Pictured above
It�s no secret that BMW is getting ready to adopt a front-wheel drive layout for its smaller models including certain versions of the next generation of the 1-Series.

BMW Boss Says Front-Wheel Drive Bimmers will be �The Ultimate Driving Machine�


The times, they are a-Changing sang Bob Dylan, and they did. And for the most part, it�s for the better �or we�d still be living in caves.

Carscoop�s spy photographers have snapped some of the first images of the sportiest edition yet of the Mini Countryman bearing the John Cooper Works logo.

First and foremost, the Countryman JCW will get a juiced up version of the Cooper S� 1.6-liter twin-scroll turbo engine. Being that the Countryman is much heavier than the other Mini JCW variants, engineers may further hone the four-cylinder powerplant to deliver more than 211-ponies it normally produces, possibly approaching the 230HP mark.
