BRG MINI One?

I think I've seen MINI Ones in all the original launch colours apart from BRG. I was just wondering why that might be.

Has anyone else seen one?

If it is quite rare, do you think it's because people think it's just 'not quite right' to put B-Racing-G on the (comparatively) less sporty version of the MINI?

this car in BRG looked great especially with its black grille ;-)

Seen several, looks excellent with 5 star alloys. Also in fact saw an all BRG Cooper yesterday, and that looked even better.

Varse's Velvet Beauty Mk11 is no longer, sold back to my dealer.

I've seen two BRG Ones and also saw an all BRG Cooper (with sunroof) today as well - very smart.

DON'T OVERDO THE CHROME!!! A bit of extra chrome is OK, But......

Too much chrome and you'll end up as a Chromaholics Anonymous member...you have been warned!!!!

Thanks everyone.

It does look really good, even just in a photo! Maybe I'll see one on the road soon...
