BRG Cooper S

Just wondered if anyone has a picture/pictures of a British Racing Green Cooper S? I've seen red, dark silver, electric blue but no green!!

Would love to see one as I'm getting one in September with the works (well nearly all the options)!!

The two replies to your post suggested a matching BRG roof instead, and were hardly abusive:

This link shows two pictures of BRG with white sunroof (pics no. 11 & 15). Doesn't look bad IMO.

Cool here's a couple

This is US spec, so you don't get the wheel arch reflectors or the steering wheel on the (right) left side.

Smile one more

For a good idea of how dark the BRG can be in shade, check out the MINI2 gallery of Mini-Fan at

Sorry, I did not mean to say they were nasty, but they were of no help. I still have not found a picture of one with a black top. What I do not like about the white top is that you then end up with a three tone car. half black/half white mirrors, white top, black trim else where. Still haven't decided what to do. There is a BRG/Black Cooper in my town, but I have only been able to catch a glimpse of it as it zips past.

WHEN is BRG available (in the US) for the S?!! That's my second choice, Indi Blue being first, but... NEITHER of them are available on the S, so I have been told...

boo hoo hoo!

You are correct. ALL dark Cooper S colours are delayed, some say due to marketing, others due to a paint matching problem with the plastic bits of the S.

The truth is out there.........somewhere.........

Thanks for the pics. So there are no pics of a BRG Cooper S with a black roof? In reply to Seemunkee I currently have a Cooper that is BRG with a black roof and I think it looks great, prefer it to the white roof but that's my opinion. Think you should go for it!

Also, could have had a Cooper S next week but decided to wait until September when I could get BRG as they have delayed certain colours. Can't speak for the US though.

So, if there are any Cooper S pics, BRG with a black roof I'd love to see them!!

Same deal in the US, BRG not available until September builds. That's OK with me. I had a deposit at one dealer and was told I wouldn't get a build until next summer. Went to a different dealer on Saturday and got a Sept build from them.

Black Full Leather. I'd love the biege leather or even half green/black but its not available. I'm sure it will be in the future though.

Question Tires On BRG "S"

Are those runflat Dunlop SP Sport 9000's I see on that car? My dealer keeps telling me that the ONLY performance tire choice is the Pirelli eufori@. I want those Dunlops. I have them on my present car and love them. Does anybody know if they are available or not?

Indeed, there are no pics at the moment of this combo, but a little photoshop can do wonders.....

A hope this will suit you:
