The more pics of actual cars I see, the more pleased I am I ordered a body coloured roof too .... you realise with black you'll be cleaning it constantly tho!
now got 2 black cars, nightmare but nice when clean
ride compared to my last car that run 18' run flats is ok, i prefer harder ride, still taking it easy and roads been bit greasy all weekend so will really tell when weathers better.
I only had half an hour with it at Soper's this afternoon, when they'd kindly pulled it from preparation because I was coming to do some paperwork, but I'm delighted so far and will do a proper photo job when I collect in March.
(I didn't attempt anything inside as it's all plastic bags and masking tape at the moment but my first impression is of a much better build quality than my early Clubman D.)
The OG seems slightly darker and more blueish than BRG but it sets off the chrome bits and Polar Beige leather seats and I'm sure it'll be what I wanted by the time it's had a wash and polish!
I am impressed - and I didn't think I would be. I had a 2002 BRG Mini Cooper and loved the colour. So I was put off the OG for no real reason other than it was different to BRG. As you say it will look even better when it is fully prepared.
I think it is going to be one of those colours where a particular colour suits a particular car if you know what I mean.
Anyway, enjoy your car when you get it. We LOVE ours.
