Thumbs up Interior Combo?

Just spec'ing our CM, which gets ordered tomorrow! yay!

Decided to go for the light headlining rather than black.

Seats will be Gravity Leather Polar Beige... but this is the Q;

The doors... which combo best to go with seats and headlining?
I know there is no 'best' as its all down to personal taste, but can't decide whether to go Interior World Polar Beige or Black.

If there are examples knocking around I would be grateful to see.

Thanks in advance.

Just found this, which I think looks proper smart.

Was gonna go other way round on the door, but might be too much polar!

is there a MINI dealer near you? good place to see interiors in person

however, if no dealer nearby, have you tried surfing the net?

found pic below via GOOGLE: piping on seats look good IMHO plus contrasting colors for the panels

Answer to your Q. is yes... might be worth a trip to see, but they are all lovely, just want the balance right between the black and the polar.

Thanks for the pic though, lovely interior. Ideally need Countryman examples though so can see actual options I could have.

I have the polar beige door pockets and standard headliner along with piano black trim. I like it. Not great view but for what it's worth:




If you want pix of a specific area let me know and I can snap and upload.

Awesome. Thank you for that. Much appreciated.
Looks tidy.. very nice. You got me thinking now about Polar or Black with the Gravity!
Would like to see the rear doors as well if you have any pics.
By the way, mine is a UK spec CM (not that makes much / any diff).

I'd go with the polar. The black looks too boring to me.

I went with the polar beige door pockets to enhance the ambient lighting... brightens up the interior much more at night than the black.

It matches with the standard polar beige headliner, so all around, it saved me money and i think it looks great. Especially at night.
