First post and i wanna say "hey" to everyone here.

I am thinking to buy a MCS very soon, so i have a small question.

the white - coloured

or the orange one

are they available in EU?

Any suggestions where to find them?

Shame, I like the orange one.

love the White one!

The only "white" that MINI offered was called "pepper white" and it looks more cream to me. The white there is very nice looking. Having owned a white car though, the upkeep on the paint is crazy!

As a pepper white owner - it really isn't pure white as already mentioned - more an ivory/creamy or (for the less cultured - me, that is) dirty white.

It really is, again as already mentioned, a swine to keep clean, but then I wash her every week anyway.

Trust me, pure silver is no easier to keep clean! The Mrs. has a white Subaru Forester and it is a pain to clean and always dirty.

I always found my white car easy to clean (you still see the dirt when wet) but very hard to keep clean. Possibly the new dirt brown on the Traveler will be a good colour?

ItHurts · Jun 29th, 2007, 12:08 AM

Yeah, easy to clean. Impossible to keep clean after the event!

LOL, the suby is awesome looking right after the bath, but take it for a spin and all that work is quickly lost.
