Also Dooper (who posted above) said that if MINI stop Astro Black then his car will be dated. I was trying to say that MINI stop and start new colours all the time it doesn't make your car dated but sought after. Some people went out of their way to find a solid black MINI making them sought after even if MINI decided to stop it. It will be the same for Astro Black as it is a lovely very popular colour.

I hope that is clearer for you.

Champion. Well, mine was 'dated' when I bought it (in Dec 06), and dated now, even though they still do the colour ... Pure Silver. Although my mandate is 'buy what you like, not what happens to be fashionable or safe'.
