IMHO that doesn't work very well on DS. I'm ordering this weekend; I'll either go HB/W or DS/W. What does look awesome on DS/W (again, it's only my opinion) is the Blue Lapis interior.
Yeah, I thought about the beige too, but in the end I went with black-(my wife was not really a fan of the beige), but I have to say that I cannot imagine it looking too crash-hot in any other body color than BRG.
I considered DS as a body color too, until I saw one at the dealer on an overcast day...
So, have you struck a deal with any dealer yet? Who did you decide on?
It looks different and nice....but the leather hasn't fared well...it's stretched and has gotten a bit dirty...
It also restricts you for modding....if I had normal colours...I would have dropped $$$ on bucket seats by now I reckon...
If you do go cordoba, I reccomend getting rubber mats.....because those mats get pretty dirty, I shudder to think what the cordoba mats would look like after a while...
I can take some more photo's of it if you like....
I'll take some photo's of how the seats have fared as well, to give you an idea...
Yeah... I think that the Beige is a great colour but after some day to day use I imagine it would be pretty hard to keep clean... especially the floor carpet in the winter months.
Go HB/W as at least then it is close the the Italian Job Mini's. I looked at DS/B but found there were too many, however, it is a nice combo as alternative. BRG/W or BRG/B are also very good, so is BEP/W.Overall, I love the HB/W combo and with union jack it is a excellent colour match.
Stay away from Beuge interior, the Lapis goes well with the HB/W.
Sorry I've taken so long to reply but my laptop crashed
I've had to buy a new one until the spare parts come from o/s and of course I haven't done a back up have I !!! Doh!
I love technology BUT doesn't it annoy you when something goes horribly wrong. I lost all my fav pics of Minis so now I'm up and running I thought I'd get some replacement pics.
I got a terrible shock logging on here coz I didn't know anything about the upgrade to the site.
No gallery!!
Anyway, back to business. I get the feeling that the Cordoba won't stand up very well. Guess Black is the way to go. Does anybody else think Panther Black a strange name for a colour that looks very much like grey?
Still haven't struck any deals yet. Need to firm up a spec first !
Love to see some pics of the interior Tit, thanks.
I had a DS/W with panther black, I would have taken either cordoba or more likely lapis blue over panther black. Black is just boring on a MINI. Lapis blue has got to be the best though for a DS/W.

Colour Combo 
, I've always thought that it was odd...perhaps they modeled it from a photo of an old panther...
