MINI2

neston4nomads · Sep 5th, 2007, 01:17 PM

The other day i went past my local MINI dealer and on show right at the front was a brand new R56 MC in oxygen blue with a union jack roof and mirrors with spots and 17 inch flame alloys and it looked brilliant,

but then i realised that i have never seen any minis in OB, and does anyone on here have one!!

andrewcregan · Sep 5th, 2007, 05:10 PM

I think it is the NEW colour. I saw 2 brand new ones at the dealers the other day, awaiting delivery. It wasn't my favourite colour to begin with, but is growing on me.

I like it. It's very reminiscent of a pale blue the classic Minis were available in back in the '60s. Someone on here has got one with a reg plate that says OXYGEN somehow - saw it at the South Downs Weekender. Belongs to the female half of the couple who met via mini2 and are now getting hitched. Can't remember their names....... getting old!

That would be 'Mini E'.

She has an Oxygen Blue ONE

My neighbour has just got on in oxygen blue. When first saw it it looked sort of turquoise then when I saw it again a sort of pale blue. Colour can look very different each time due to lighting coditions. Very nice indeed. She had a very long wait for delivery due to not many available in this colour.

andrewcregan · Sep 5th, 2007, 06:55 PM

Isn't there one with the reg OX57 GEN?

Got to say that I wasn't a fan of OB but when I went to Woodmans a couple of months ago they had an OB ONE in the showroom and it looked lovely.

LizzyG · Sep 6th, 2007, 07:54 AM

I saw one on the road for the first time the other day, i'm not so sure really.

Buffster Bird · Sep 6th, 2007, 08:57 AM

My neighbour had one as a courtesy car recently whilst his white MCS Covertible was being serviced. I must say neither of us really liked the colour. I certainly wouldn't choose it form my next MINI. It looks like the colour of French racing cars in the 1920's.

andrewcregan · Sep 6th, 2007, 03:28 PM

If I was being harsh, it reminds me of the standard colour of the 3 wheel Robin Reliant - not a claim to fame you would want!

Mini E · Sep 6th, 2007, 05:51 PM

That's me with my Oxygen Blue Mini One - her name is Genny and her number plate is
OX07 GEN!! (My Mum very kindly bought me the number plate for my birthday!) And if there is an OX57 GEN then they've copied it from me!

She does look very different in different lights but I love the colour and it's still really unique! (not sure what she'd look like all blue though - I specked a black check roof, so she has blue and black checks!!)

Mini E · Sep 6th, 2007, 07:47 PM

Thanks for that!! I'm useless at posting pictures!

andyminiseven · Sep 6th, 2007, 08:00 PM

I've seen Gennie in the flesh and although the colour is quite unusual it really does look stunning, a real head turner

The plate just tops it off really

aussie11 · Sep 6th, 2007, 10:06 PM

I can 2nd that Andy it looks awsome

Woody'sCooper · Sep 7th, 2007, 08:28 AM

It does look absolutely fantastic - and the plate is stroke of genius.

But does it say Oxygen or 'Oxford, 07 Generation' !??

gemmalaw26 · Sep 7th, 2007, 11:52 AM

we have a demo on fleet - Mini One with 16" bridge spokes, oxygen blue but have put sports black vipers on it and stripes along both doors!! look fab.
Standard it looks a little poor wasnt too keen but has grown on me!
