Hmmm its a tough choice because both colours would look fab! I think the astro black would look very cool with the black and white roof, so I think I'd go for that.

I have a lightning blue with black roof that I had checked. It looks FAB

I think either will be great.

I'd go for Astro Black...but I would say that as I bought one in that colour today!

As a fellow Astro Black owner - got to say, go for Astro, it looks great in the sun.

just placed my order for MCS AB/W, Premier, Convenience, LSD, Sport Suspension, White Bonnet Stripes. I'm sooooo excited!!! We were having a hard time deciding on the On Board Nav System, but I passed on it when we saw the Garmin Portable one at the dealer. Does anyone have any opinions the the Garmin vs. the On Board Nav? If I change my mind on the On Board Nav, how long do I have to let MINI know?

Thanks again everyone for all your helpful advice!!!

Astro black. It's the only colour that hides the too wide spats and googly headlights

Oh and the fact I've got it in Astro
