England Pics of 2nd Generation Mini in Dark Siver

I was just wondering if anybody has any photographs of the new model (Cooper S) in Dark Silver with a white roof!! I have one on order & would like to see what i'm in for!! I have seen plenty of pics of the new car but not in the colour I'm getting!!

Thanks

A few of us went on the factory tour last night and I spotted a few DS R56's being built - looks very nice (but maybe I am biased, as my current S Works is DS ). Doesn't really help you without piccies I'm afraid tho!

Just been to look at the new beast and took a couple of pics I think they are the 1st pics of a DS S on MINI2. (sorry only had mobile phone with me so the quality has suffered a bit)

Had the Red leather seats which suited the colour really well

I sat in it & really wanted to just drive off in it!!! (no reg plates but nevermind )

I've waited the best part of 3 weeks now so I guess another few days isn't going to hurt!!! It was really nice to see it in the flesh & to feel happy with my choice of colour!!!

TBH the white roof was the thing that I wasmost worried about, but like you said it does seem to look good (I'm sure a lot of ppl would still prefer black but I just fancied being a bit more individual)

Sorry for P*ssing u off mate but don't worry it won't be long now!!!
