Picked up our MCS yesterday and are VERY happy with it!

I think the interior is particularly nice IMO. Let me know what you all think..

Took the pics in daylight and rain today so were very quick.

Cheers

Jim

More pics can be found in my other post HERE and Gallery HERE

Yep, interior looks great, congrats!

The BRG looks very dark, but that's maybe a dull day not helping

Enjoy!

I have to say I'm not a huge fan of BRG, but I think you may have just changed my mind!

that looks ace

Chris.F · Jan 7th, 2007, 07:16 PM

Looks really nice. Classic combo. Enjoy.

CC07ERS · Jan 7th, 2007, 07:34 PM

nice one jim the cream really goes with the brg

AMT · Jan 7th, 2007, 07:37 PM

Looks wonderful - my first cooper was BRG/W, and my new R56 might just be another BRG/W based on these pics!

Dazmac13 · Jan 7th, 2007, 07:48 PM

Totally agree about the interior, best looking interior I have seens. Seriouly glad i have specced it and saved the £550 or £750 for boring black leather or odd looking beige. AWESOME!!!!!

swil00 · Jan 7th, 2007, 07:54 PM

Yeah it looks great.. The cream in the interior goes well with the BRG paintwork..

The only thing I'm not keen on are the white wheels,,, They must be murder to keep clean especially at this time of year..

Enjoy the car

Taffcd · Jan 7th, 2007, 08:03 PM

Damb wished I'd Picked BRG. Very nice!

JG02JSG · Jan 7th, 2007, 08:03 PM

Great colour BRG looks good on any car, interior looks really well, I take it the seats are ray carbon cloth leather ? If it was me would of gone for chrome interior but each to there own

To me it looks a bit lighter than the BRG on the previous models but that could be my imagination... The day was particularly dull as well though.

My thoughts as well

but each to their own.

I have seen BRG cars with silver wheels and I don't think it looks nearly as nice, the white alloys just finishes the look off to me. And yes I think they will be murder to keep clean, they were filthy within a few miles driving!

There was chrome interior in the loan car that MINI gave me due to the delays and until my one was ready and TBH I am glad I stuck with the standard silver - the chrome around the speedo was highly reflective and distracting at times, especially at night.. The seats are Cloth/Leather Ray Cream White.

mad brummie · Jan 8th, 2007, 06:46 PM
