Well I managed to grab a couple of shots of the fabled Gold Mini.

Enjoy.

minging!

paddlefoot · Sep 16th, 2002, 06:11 AM

Yeah - it doesn't float my boat either.

Kinster · Sep 16th, 2002, 06:22 AM

knaone · Sep 16th, 2002, 06:24 AM

Notice that the bumper is black and not body coloured, is that a new thing?

AprilWhine · Sep 16th, 2002, 06:34 AM

It's pretty, but I prefer orange.

paddlefoot · Sep 16th, 2002, 06:39 AM

This car must "belong" to someone who works at the Cowley plant cos there'e a different Mini there every weekend. There was a variety of other S's (including a BRG) way before they were launced in June. So looks like the lucky bugger gets to play with all the pre-production models.

AidenL · Sep 16th, 2002, 07:08 AM

Gold was never going to be a hit with me.......

knaone · Sep 16th, 2002, 07:26 AM

I'm sure it will prove popular with the EB crowd.

smiffy · Sep 16th, 2002, 08:03 AM

It looks like that car suffers with the condensation in the rear lights too

Yuk!

Well 70's - has it got brown vinyl seat aswell?

I've seen one around Edinburgh a few times now so it's not the only one. Also few months back I was passed by a gold cooper with gold alloys and a snake skin roof!!!!

Has anyone else seen this car and does anybody know why????

Without doubt the worst colour I've seen on a MINI... All it needs to complete the exercise in bad taste is a white roof & wheels for that cod-Versace meets Tomb Of Tutankhamen look

warp · Sep 16th, 2002, 10:52 AM

Even for a MINI.

monica · Sep 16th, 2002, 11:06 AM

Sorry I had a moment there. There was another gold MINI pic taken awhile back that looked pretty good. I wonder if they're still trying to finalize the shade of gold or if it's the same shade of gold and it just looks very diffrent depending on the lighting. Anyone else picturing gold rims and one of those gold chain link license plate holders?

MINIMatthew · Sep 16th, 2002, 11:15 AM

I can't believe it... they actually made a MINI look bad!
