Nevada Pearlescent Red. 

 

Best colour. - At least pink is the least stolen colour.

my fav is old english white with a black roof and the metallic BRG shining in the sun.

 

worst is that bog standard city e red.

The stereotypical mini, red with white roof... Boring!

Of all the fancy colours rover used in the later years. I think solar red is hard to beat on a sportspack Cooper. I do like volcano orange and ameranth purple also.

I also like the rare 70's colours like black tulip and java green.

The worst colour for me was a tan browny colour they did. My 1st mini was an x reg city that had been resprayed racing green but started out that shade. Same colour as baby poo! :-( g

Exactly, who goes into a showroom and says I want a car the same colour as the loo after I had a dodgy curry?

I have to admit I like and think any colours goes on a mini as long as its well kept and original looking. I have seen a mini near me in racing green, and he's got that silly with bodywork and spoilers etc its no longer tasteful.

 

I do have a thing about greys, especially tweed grey. :) I'm not too keen on sandy beige at the moment.

Best- black and white
Worst- orange!

'Worst - Orange' - ?

Just watching Mr Bean with my five year old daughter (she's not seem my mini yet because its been in repair since I bought it) and she is thinking mine might look like Mr Bean's. Is it wrong that I am now contemplating buying an Austin and respraying it to look like Mr Bean's?   May I add I love the colours.
