Where are all the Pure Silver R56's?

I am not a great fan of Silver, but certainly wouldn't have one on the principal that it is the most common colour around. Walking around my estate I sometimes wonder whether Silver qualifies for a discount on your council tax bill!
Pepper White is apparently the best selling colour at the moment.
I think that over the long term, the only colours you can rely on remaining in fashion are black, silver and red. Still wouldn't swap my Lightning Blue for anything else

i thought the silver was a little too silver, and did not have as much presence on the MIni as other colours did. I ending up choosing astro black and was going to have a white roof and mirrors, but the car i drove was all black, and i personally found that to be better looking.

So, is nobody ordering PS? Has silver gone out of fashion?

Here it is MINI COOPER :: North American Motoring - Please Post Pictures of Your R56 Here..., I like it!

I have one, KenL, an all silver MCS ... simply because I like the colour and that it is understated. I was told by the sales rep at the time that it was highly irregular - I thought she was going to refuse to order it for me at one point . I have yet to see another all silver R56 MINI actually in the metal, never mind an S. Each to their own I say ... be brave!
