Pure Silver Hands Up All Pure Silver Coopers!!

Just a random thread saying Hi and wondering who else on here has a pure silver cooper?
I dont see that many around thats all and being a pure silver owner myself I thought I would put myself forward and say Hi

Attached a pic of mine as I made a few posts on here but not put a pic of my car up. Pure Silver Cooper 51 plate with Chili pack

Had a few additions since purchase. 17" S-Spokes, Clear Side Repeaters, stainless steel pedals and just fitted an Alpine CD stereo not sure whats next... maybe spots?

Be good to see other Pure Silver owners!

Yes the silver is sharp! Usually, I hate silver cars but the Pure Silver is very bright and refreshing. I love walking around corners at night and realize that I parked my Mini under a street light, nothing has ever looked so beautiful.

....that kinda sounded weird haha!

lol originally I wanted to get a black, chili red or dark blue cooper but at the time the silver one came up and was good money with what I wanted on it so I went for it.

I think black would have crazed me a bit. dont get me wrong it looks great but I would drive about 10 miles and it would look dirty straight away lol silver hardly shows it up much although mine is now looking a bit tarnished lol

Very nice Buz. The S fuel cap is a tempting addition. Is it quite difficult to fit though? Also you have to get part sprayed dont you?
I was tempted to fit the chrome line interior. Stainless steel pedals are a nice touch I think!
JCW Mats next maybe? Not too fussed about performance mods

Fuel cap was a simple enough job, i got instructions off here, no special tools required just a little patience. You're right the outer trim does need painting however i brought mine already done from a guy on ebay £39 all in. Not sure if he still does them coz keeping an eye out for my mate but no signs recently.
Go for the pedals they will look good, as does extra chrome against the silver.
I wasn't bothered about performance mods but my standard exhaust has rotted away and makes sense to replace with a S/S one........might add an induction kit to compliment it though

Liking it especially the aero kit! Your right I dont see many PS MINIs around...

Saw on the other day with chequered mirrors which looked quite good. Better than I thought

Pure silver down here in Newcastle, Australia. Recent addition of black bonnet stripes has made her a little more sporty. My pride and joy!
