Choosing the right Cooper!

[OllyH]

Hi everyone, this is my first post of many, i hope. Id just like to hear your thoughts and comments on the following; Im in the very lucky position of being able to buy a Mini Cooper in the next few weeks. Currentley I am looking at two different examples, both with the same specification and mileage but in different colours. One is Chilli Red with black roof and mirrors, whereas the other is yellow with the black roof and mirrors.
Id love to hear your opinions on which colour combo looks the best!

My favourite is Yellow and Black Another Mini2er from Nottingham!

Hey Serby, nice choice. That's kind of the way im edging towards, but the red one has the 6cd changer! argh tough decisions here!!

[StitchMINI]

Red & black.

[Serby]

I find swapping discs over when at the traffic lights can be fun! Especially when they all fall out the glovebox!

[DJC]

RED gets my vote !! Enjoy it when you get it !!

[OllyH]

Well coming from a car with no CD player at all it'll be a novelty having anything!

[OllyH]

Nice 17'' alloys on yours DJC! Im really tempted to spend some more on swapping the
16s over from whichever one i get for those! They worth the price? My dealer is quoting me about £700 quid for a set, is that reasonable?

Red & Black

As God imagined them

[Serby]

I bought my wheels second hand, with two new tyres for just over £400.

Got me thinking there! Which would I go for out of those two colour combinations .... can't really decide but edging towards the Chilli Red against the yellow. My Cooper is silver with black roof and mirrors. If you go for either of those don't forget to add on black bonnet stripes - that would finish it off a treat!!!

Anyway have fun deciding

[Olly.]

Red & black would be my choice as well.

[OllyH]

Thanks for all your advice so far! But now there's a new one that has entered the equation, with the same spec. as the other two; silver and black roof. Argh! This is going to be so tough! They've all done similar mileage at similar price and I just cannot decide! Possibly edging towards yellow....

[Serby]

I reckon the yellow stands out the best, and with some black bonnet stripes it would look mint in my opinion.

btw Serby ive seen your Cooper around Nottingham - nice exhaust system!
