BRG
...and those retro wheels, where'd they come from?

 

Whoa, more info on those steelies please.

 

When MINI's first came into being I wanted nothing but BRG! Beautiful color. It's always been my favorite color anyway. Forgive me but I just couldn't not get HO/blue cabrio. It's so hot. The next MINI will be BRG. I hope its a sportster so it will truly be fitting of BRG.

 

I agree, not authentic. Macco could fix it! BRG would have been my second choice, but I like my red. Hey, why didn't MINI do a candy apple red?

 

just wait until january. I'll have my pics of my '06 BRG/S. It's going to be awesome.

 

I love BRG.








I have way more of this wonderful colour.

Well for those of us like the fact it looks great, and the only one colour with racing in it

 

A big congrats to Lotsie's Poco for hitting 100,000 km on the odometer today! Look at how beautiful he is!

 

Count me in too.

 

That is a BEAUTIFUL photo. CAMELPILOT: is that a chrome grill? I've been thinking about switching to chrome... looks sweet! dan

 

Ah yes, they are the "Wave" wheel from our friends (and NAM sponsors) TireRack. I was really liking the silver as I was unwrapping them. Later on I checked and tried to figure out if one could specify the silver color when ordering, but I'm afraid that there is no drop down box with a color spec. They are the cheapest 16" wheels that you can get for the Mini, and were $50 each. Free mounting/balancing and reasonable shipping is why TireRack keeps getting my business!

My drivers rear wheel center mount already has some surface rust on it, so I'm going to sand and clear coat it when we get a decent day around here (like in May ) but overall I'm pretty happy with these wheels, and LOVE the tires...

 

Monte Carlo RED.
This picture shows your color best.

 

Here's a really old one. . . from the first Summertime Slayers at the Dragon!

 

Who is that striking guy in the background?

 

Not sure, but he sure looks kool!

 

Here is my second BRG, had it for couple of weeks, friends kept asking me when am I going to get my new cooper s and I tell them it's in the parking lot and it looks the same as the old one.

 

IT looks so small!

 

Ok stop laughing, I made it bigger.

 

I am likewise on my second all BRG MCS. Just got the new one last Friday.

The 2006 will get a yellow lotus stripe just as soon as they get here (next week perhaps) and it gets warm enough to install (probably April). Pics of the 2003 with the stripe are in my gallery.

Here's the new one:Attachment 9275

Yep! Chrome grill. It is one of the best things I have put on the car.

I highly reccommend it, you won't regret it.

Can I join too?

 

Can we get a close up of the antenna topper ?

 

Yes, for winters that would be nice

 

One of my least favorite colors- sorry, but it reminds me of a Ford Taurus. No offense intended, just my honest opinion.

 

I didn't think this was a "tell us how you feel about BRG" thread... I don't see the point in bashing someones choice of color - and that is my honest opinion too.

 

Hey, just remember, it's the only colour with racing in it
