Electic Blue S

I used to love dark MCS silver with a white roof, but the colour was just too common (the MCS silver I mean) normally with a black roof.

But chilli red with a white roof does it for me in a MCS - that's the ultimate MINI colour endof!

Oh and mine is all hyper blue!

Nice Mini mini5lover, Pure Silver with a White roof works for me but it's not an official colour scheme still that just makes mine more special

It's interesting how people are influenced by the colours in the brochure. For example, for the R56, you see lots of Cooper S's in Laser Blue with white roof, and now lots of Cooper D's in Pepper White with Black roof.

Me? Cooper D in Sparkling Silver and Black roof.

Very nice I like BEP as you don't see that many of them around

Apart from BEP I have a few main favourites... Solid Black, Pepper White, and also Oxygen Blue

I liked Solid Gold, had a SG/W Cooper and thought it was a great colour but didn't seem very popular as I never saw many of them on the road.

Thanks Jo, almost brought a Red / White MCS but the insurance was more than the JCW and I am quite happy with my colours, Red / White is a good combo though, will the new one have a Union Jack as well?

I pretty much like all the colours... But I do like a BLACK roof.

Union Jack? You'll have to wait and see


BEP is a gorgeous colour! I have to say I did want it when I ordered my current MINI but I think they had just stopped doing it. I wanted BEP and White with a Pink/Purple Union Jack

My Cooper in Pepper White with black roof and lots of Chrome for that Retro Classic look..

Perhaps its my age..

To be fair there`s plenty of cracking colours.

BEP is a great colour. I loved my PW/B Cooper - but I think my new one looks cleaner for longer (MY/B). Always loved electric blue - probably would have had that this time round if it had still been available.
