I'm off to the dealer tomorrow, but I can't imagine that colours will be restricted - not good business for BMW.

although i don't plan to have a cooper d at least until the end of the year, i've been playing with the configurator at mini.co.uk.

I have two "favourite" colours (the one i really love is dark silver only available on cooper s), sparkling silver and pure silver.

I've seen a sparkling silver r56 on motoring file and was surprised about the way it looked.

Does anyone has some fotos of r56's with these colours so i can compare?

Thanks

Miss Marmite's http://www.mini2.com/forum/2nd-gen-m...hlight=marmite thread has pics of her sparkling silver. (Mine might turn up next week! ) A lot of the press pics for the Sidewalk convertible have this colour in, so you can get a good idea of what it looks like. On the configurator, it's too glossy.

I tjhink colour choice on the new car , along with the choice of wheels, is the poorest aspect of the new car.
Not enough new colours for me, so I have opted for Pepper White. Previously had Silver Cooper, and Electric Blue One D, so wanted something different.
Sparkling Silver came a close second though.

I do think that the colours are still limited - maybe it's deliberate, but I can't understand why.
