X-posted in the R56 NonS forum.
Just bought a used Mellow Yellow with 42k miles on it and it is in wonderful shape.

My 2008 base Cooper needs a center armrest, and somewhere in the last few days I found some vendors website that had it with the piano black and yellow that matched my door and dash panels but now I cannot find it! Anyone know who sells that? Not really interested in the storage box option, I rather liked the trim look of the thinner one in the picture I saw. I looked on every page in the MY Owners Club, all the galleries, and did not see one like it - was it ever available from Mini? In the UK only, perhaps?


I did find these http://www.redlinegoods.com/MINI07armrest.php
They look like I could order something that sorta matches the yellow I have now, but I know that is not the website I was looking at. Not really interested in the neoprene covers either, just the exact match to the trim panels on the door and dash.

Any help appreciated!

Have to love the Mello Yellow and all the variants you guys are showing. No yellow before or after Mello is close.

My beautiful Mellow Yellow 2008 MCS is up for sale. I was hoping to keep her forever but my wife & I can't justify 3 cars and a motorcycle with only 2 people in the house. This baby is loaded if anyone is interested. I am 54 years old and have kept this S in excellent condition. Timing, both water pumps, HPFP, fuel injectors, walnut blasting, a battery, brakes, you name it I have spent the money on it.

Hello. I noticed that some of you have the aero kit on your Minis. Mine also has this kit but the fenders are painted to match the body. Does the aero kit come painted from the factory or did the previous owner have my fenders custom painted? I have a 2009.

Another Mellow Yellow in Ottawa Ontario, Canada

Hello all,

My 2007 Cooper 'S', which I recently purchased as my "driving to church on Sundays car." (Daily driver is a Mazda 2) This is MY 3rd MINI. The first 2 MINIS were a 1967 (used) which was traded for a new 1971 (both white.) In fact, they were the first 2 cars that I owned. (And no, I'm not quite a senior citizen yet.) I can hardly express what a nostalgic rush it is to drive this car.

Also, my very special lady friend that can manage a 6 speed manual transmission very well . . . with heels or without.

Very special! Sweet Mini. When I click on your pictures to enlarge, a slide of Mini's comes up. I never noticed that before. Mine is in the slide, the only one with a white top apparently.

Velocityvic, I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying your white top MINI comes up in my posting/pics?

Not in the three but when I click to enlarge one of the three, it enlarges and a slide with 7-8 pics pop up. There are others Mini's too, all Mellow Yellow including mine...

Like I said, it's the first time it's happened.

Velocity, can you give that another try? The slide show should now only be 3 pics long - hopefully. Thanks
