Post Your Matching Roofs!

In keeping with this trend we seem to have going here...

Post pics of your MINI's with matching roofs! I love having the matching LY/LY. I read in a book I got a while ago that only 3% of MINI's had a matching roof.

Anyway, post away!

Here's mine... Sorry it's not a very good shot.

Amen, brother. Finally someone started this thread. Here you go:






I think body color roof looks more serious and sporty than white roof. It is very personal though.

I have pics of my 2003 brg/brg MCS in my gallery - really loved it, but just sold it and got a 2006 brg MCS cabrio with a black roof. I looked at the green cabrio top, but I really didn't like the color match with the brg body.

The 3% of us should be proud, and stick together.

Thanks PEP! Yeah guys (and girls )... the matching-ness is lovely!

I like the B/B (dunno if it's Hyper or Indy) with the black wheels.... very nice.

Here is my new MCS. Not that I have actually seen the matching roof in person as it has taken almost a month to finally get a trucking company to pick it up, but it is finally on its way west and I can't wait.

It's the "Speck"! Remember that commercial with the business traveler guy who got stuck with the teeny-tiny car (the Speck) and the teeny-tiny hotel room? I have no idea what the ad was trying to sell.
