Forgot to add that I quite like Liquid Yellow too

Silver can either look very very boring, or really very cool IMO R56 launch car PS/B on 15s looks boring, but an R50 in PS/B factory tints and std Chili Pack 16s looks amazing

MY is the same colour as school busses in the USA ... get a MY clubbie and you've got yourself a not-cool-at-all schoolbus! blech!

silk green is the colour i always wanted ... but it was no longer sold when i got my 06 S.

Thanks for you post Miniac

Pepper White R56


Dark Silver R53


Personally even though I do have a Pepper White I do still like my old Dark Silver best, it's a shame Alpine White doesn't come in the Mini then it'd be metallic for a better shine!

Funny how times have changed.

CR was really popular on the R53 and now it is PW for the R56!

Obviously a trend thing....I agree a brilliant white would be good.........with black bits instead of chrome....like the lotus.....nice!

I chose pepper white with the roof in body colour just to be different, looks like it paid off as it's the least popular combo on the R56!

Always ready for a MINI adventure!

But what's the point in asking for peoples opinions when you haven't given them all the colours and the correct colours

You might as well have done just DS, its would have been just as much use as this thread

Anyone for a cuppa tea from the chocolate tea pot?
