Silk Green wasn't too far off from Almond Green (AMRG). I thought it looked quite nice, and may have been tempted had it been available in 2004. I'm very happy with PW, but you're right on about there not being enough solid color choices. For instance, the absence of a true BRG is unfortunate. A non-metallic medium blue would also look nice.

It's difficult to tell from chips, but the samples presented here look like a rehash of EB and VR.

Almond green would look fantastic, especially with matching green leather like the Mini cooper 35 ltd edtion or a nice cream colour interior like the later sportspack Minis. Eggshell blue would be great on the hatchback but would look really good on the convertible. And colours like Pagent blue and mullberry red were always popular.

Some good solid standard colours are needed, there is not enough choice at the bottom end of the range for people working to a budget.

Although Russet Brown can stay well and truly in the history books....... Nobody deserves that........
