I will be completely honest and admit that one of the reasons I chose Horizon Blue was because I knew that if MINI continued the trend it wouldn't be long before it was discontinued too and that would, in theory, make my car more valuable. Plus I love the color. Dirty or clean, it's still beautiful.

Another proud owner of the (now retired) HzB here. I like that it is a low profile color and easy to maintain.

I also feel like I own one of the special edition colors (at least on picture) for the 2012 London Olympics...the Bayswater:

Congratulations on finding a HzB Clubman to own and love! You will find yourself walking up to your MINI almost three years from now saying, "Wow, this really is a great looking car." Have a blast and go fast!

Congrats! That's a beautiful color combination. I've decided that if anything should ever happen to my MINI I'll immediately go to a dealership, hand them a list of required features(like xenon headlights and non-leatherette seats) and tell them that I don't care where they have to ship the MINI from but I will only buy another Horizon Blue MINI. I love the color that much.

Feel free to ask questions. That's what we're all here for

Howdy Ms. Maggie,

I have the same inquiry, how do you get a badge, and is it a badge that can only be added to ones siggy in this (and other) forums, or is it a badge like one of these: http://www.gobadges.com/SHOP-NOW-s/127.htm that I can add to my new buggy?

Hey All,

I posted by first round of Q&A over here:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/1st-gear/229247-newbie-q-and-a-round-one.html#post3502099 It was a major hassle to post it once so I didn't want to have to jury rig it again. But I would like your input/responses/advice. Thanks.

New to the HZB Owners Club

Hi all, I've had mine for almost 2 years. Had no idea there was a club for us owners of HZB! I love this color and most people do too when they see mine. If I can figure out the picture posting (forum challenged LOL) I'll try to share with you my beautiful Sidnee. We made our debut at the Dragon this year and these were from this event. I live in Florida so my tint is crazy dark but I think it just makes everything pop!

Super cool. I know I parked next to a HZB at the general store a few times. They looked so nice together and then I met another young man with one also and we would park together too. We gotta stick together! Next year I'll keep my eye out for ya!
