Hi,
Ok so MINI on order, build week 15, delivery April 21st ish.
Gone for high spec Cooper S in Astro Black with black leather, Piano Black dash, charcoal colourway and anthricite headlining, plus chromeline interior to give it some sparkle.
Incidently it's also got a sunroof so that should lighten it up a bit.
The demo car had this combiniation and it looked superb.
Thing is, browsing the forum this mornig I cam across this thread:

And I have to say, that Astro Black Cooper S with Tuscan Beige looks fantastic!
I'd considered this but thought it was a darker beige (more a sandy colour like the door trim) but in the photos it looks cream, which is very classy.
So I'm in a real quandry now, should I switch to Tuscan Beige? I think it looks classy, it'd lighten the interior, be a good contrast with the outside, and I like it a lot. Just not sure about the door trim though, wish that was black like the dash and the carpet (ie just the seats in cream).
But the black of the demo car looked great too, I like the whole black on black theme of the car, it'd be more practical, and it's sportier, and it is above all a sporty car.
What do we think, stick with black or switch to Tuscan Beige?
And given the dates above, am I even able to change (I guess I am, the order only went in a couple of days ago) and how long have I got to make my mind up?
