Having a look I think I prefer the Black roof. I did see a nice black and white checked roof on the orange Mini.

I'd go black or body coloured.

I'v only seen a Spice Orange with a black roof and I must admit that I wasn't too impressed. Spice Orange is quite dark so combined with the black roof I thought it made it a tad dull. However, if you got the black roof AND black alloys I think it would make it a totally different car, giving it a strong sporty look. If black alloys are out of the question then my choice would be a white roof with white alloys.

I agree. Spice orange often looks rather dull, so a black roof doesn't do it any favours.
