Hello Tom, thanks for reaching out. We do have a trailer hitch for the 2012 Mini Cooper Convertible. For that, you will need the following:
- EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 1-1/4" # EH47FR
This is confirmed to fit the convertible models at long as it has the center mounted dual exhaust like in the picture below. It has a 300 lb tongue weight capacity, and 2,000 lb towing rating.
Will you be using the hitch for a bike rack? Or are you pulling a trailer?
