For instance, why can't we have that fantastic shade of Bird's synthetic custard yellow that MG's came in? Triumph's Speed Triple used to come in a colour called "Nuclear Red" which was an outrageous shade of metallic nail varnish pink. Great!

So come on BMW, throw caution to the wind and give us something really outrageous There must be plenty of unpainted BMW 1 series body shells that you can use up all the dull paint colours on..

Would have to agree - how come MG could do some wikked colours for about £2K, and loads of them too, and yet MINI can only do 4 different colours and they cost almost twice that much??
