Guys, I've orderd my new MINI Cooper, and have decided to go with the silver interior trim. I know that in the past, people have complained about the quality of the silver paint, and that nicks and scratches show quiet fast. Has this problem been resolved? Tonight whilst sitting in the movies (just shows where one's thoughts are when you're in the movies and waiting for your new car), I thought about the Alloy Patina trim. Doesn't it give the appearance of being a bit dirty, and is it more resistant to scratches than the silver interior - or is it just not as noticable (with all the whirls and stuff patern)?
