I've only seen one clubman here in Las Vegas and it was chocolate. I bet the BRG looks great on the clubman. Welcome!!

New owner to be

Cheers,

I too had to have the BRG ... After I ordered (last week) I asked my MA
what were the most popular colors for people who ordered (vs buying off
the lot). I guess Red, White, and Blue were the most popular followed by
Black and Silver. I might have been tempted by the Hot Chocolate (based
on the on-line photos I've seen) but still think the BRG is the classic color.

Ordered mine with a Black roof and black wheels. Here is a picture from
the online configurator ...


This is the first time I've ordered a car and the wait is excruciating! I've
got my production number but still waiting for my production date.

Molly

Hey,
I am in So. California. Have seen a few clubmans but none in our color. So many people stop us with either questions or a huge grin and a thumbs up. Gotta love that.

I think people just right click on someone else's and save it to your pc. Then you can upload it to your signature. I Think.

Nice rides everyone. You really can't go wrong with a Mini. BRG looks soooo nice in the sun.

great clean look,
i am BRG /W which is a little less subdued.
I love the black and BRG, with the wheel trim and top, just begging for a nasty tint and black rims??

What leather color?

Hi
I was building a BRG Cooper on the MINI website, and got to the option of the seats. I have seen that everyone has black leather seats in, but... wouldn't you rather have the gravity white ones? Personally, I love the color

Hmmm....I went to the config and didn't see ant gravity white seat option. Can you take a screen pic of that or better yet pic of a real car? There is a white line dash interior is that what you are talking about?

The Tuscan Beige leather is a perfect match for the BRG.

At first I was not sold on the color but now I know it was meant to be and that all my MINIs will be BRG/B! That metallic dark green just shines in the sun. BRG owners meet Mr. Bruce Banner aka Hulk

Hey all, I've been lurking the site and mostly this thread to see if anyone has the color combo I looking to get. Does anyone have an MCS BRG/B side mirrors and roof with Black sport stripes? Thanks I will probably get this scheme regardless, just wanted to see a better picture then the one from the MINI site.
