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?
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.
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 silver hardly shows it up much although mine is now looking a bit tarnished
I love Pure Silver but reckon im a bit biased, ha ha!
Since brought a year ago i have added 1/2 leather sports seats, 17" S spokes non R/F, spots, S fuel cap and side skirts and various chrome bits and PLAYMINI TT exhaust being fitted tomorrow( a little xmas pressie to both of us).
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
Pure Silver Cooper, black roof and wing mirrors, Momo 17" rims, Cooper S Front Bumper, side skirts and hood, with the scoop made functional! Goes into the airbox...
