The new MINI

[ado]

Just got back from the dealers compound to see the new car and took a few pics. Hopefully I get used to the colour soon.

Why choose a colour that you hope to get used to?

each to their own

Sir, someone faded your yellow car....

I don't understand spending £x amount on a colour you're not even sure if you like.

 

[Gally]

Why would you buy that!

There has got to be a million other cars out there.

Was it a case of it's a mini?

 

[Gally]

Tell me you did not get rid of that RB for this?

 

[Englebert]

I quite like the colour, i keep waiting to see one stickered up like NY Taxi as the colour is perfect for it!

 

[Justin]

That's horrid IMO

 

[Jcs]

looks very much like it aimed at the american market to me.

not a fan :/

 

[daydotz]

those wheels look tiny :S what model has it got xenons

id love a mini but you cant order one without a decent set of wheels an clear indicators it screams basic spec imo

 

[fUbAr]

I like the new Mini's but that one's just, umm... s**t?

 

[Daz.]

Thats fuckin' horrid!

 

[Davis]

not a fan. minis can looks quite cool when spec'd up the right way

 

[Beef-Mc]

Not feeling the love

Forgot I started this thread.

I like the color more everytime I look at it. Reason for the uncertainty is this is a new colour on the hatch and I have only seen it on the vert. This is one of the first cars in this combination. This was a week 10 build with the new engines starting on week 9 build.

Plans are new bonnet stripes, new scuttle pannel with clear indicators and maybe an aero grille. New R112's or bullets later on in the year when I had some use of of these tyres.

Daytoz: It's a cooper. New engine with 122bhp. Can't live with the standard headlights so xenons was a must. Wish it has dynamic conering lights like the octavia but at least it is bi-xenon.

Adrian, tell me this is a wind up...

 

[.GAZ.]

OMFG.

 

[Bluebeard]

I Love Minis in general, but that is laughably crap.

 

[Dafthead]

It's not April 1st yet?

 

[Aluco]

Nice..

 

[TimR26]

Surely you haven't swapped the 197 on your flickr for that??

 

[seb]

man you guys are so harsh!

i don't think i would have chosen that colour myself, but i think it looks good.

 

[Gally]

It is harsh, I think it comes down to, if I had that kind of money....

 

[Louism]

Like it dude will stand out over all the other grey minis. Im sure it will look great on a sunny day. Is it new new as in u specc'ed it?

if its brand new, wasnt it possible for you to pick these modifications?

 

[Craig.D]

OOFT!!......sorry but have you gay tendencies?

 

[pip.]

Aah, the irony is strong in this one.

 

[Bubbles]

R112s are rare and verrrrry expensive! Surely it'd made sense to buy a 6 month old Cooper S for the same money? Better engine and extra toys already included?

 

[bill]

pass me the sick bucket!

 

[Ash87]

looks awful

 

[Ian_182]

I wouldnt want to drive that really.

 

[DrR]

Is this one of the new 4x4 ones?

 

[Reyes]

I feel sick.

 

[Clart]

jeez thats horrible.

 

[Christopher]

Terrible. Bad colour, bad spec. Just... well, bad.

 

[MattT]

Error.

Are you some sort of new age Mr Bean?
