Thanks BlackIce. Do you know whether there is an on-line catalogue where all the factory scuttles are listed?

 

Sorry, no. I just did a search on eBay of "mini cooper orange -vinyl" to find anything orange offered for my mini that wasn't vinyl and both of those items popped up. I did see the same scuttles in black and gray. Try a search of "mini cooper scuttles" and see what pops up.

 

Will do. Thanks!

 

I finally fetched the 2012 Ice Blue MCS late last week and here are a couple of pics...hopefully some better ones to follow...as you may know, the color is difficult to photograph; I hope to find the right light some day in the near future.

The car is a blast to drive and I'm beginning to have second thoughts about giving it to my daughter, although since she is away at school, I'll get to use it more than her :D

 

I just ordered a 2013 Ice Blue Clubman S. Made a LOT of decision changes but ended up with Standard shift, Black roof & mirrors, Black lounge leather seats, JCW Black leather dash, Black wheels 16", Black headlights, Black sport stripe up the middle and down the back. Connect with Nav, HK, Chrome line interior but not exterior, Auto dim rear view mirror, auto climate, Armrest, Sunroof (but not convinced that was smart for me) Roof Rails (unsure on those too), and the checkered dog liner for the back.

Looking forward to getting it. Dealer is estimating Mid December. I hope that's right.

After looking at some of the pics here, I like the regular (non-black) headlamps. I wish I would have went that way with the feature that turns them in the corners. Oh well...next time.

 

Wow! What didn't you get? FYI: You can make changes before it gets built, just call your dealer and get the headlights you want before it's finished. Sounds like a very sweet build.

 

Hadn't posted a photo amongst y'all in a while; here's one from our local club rally on 11/3/12:

 

yay!! It's official. Picked it up yesterday. Still can't believe it's real.

 

Congrats...beautiful specimen...use in good health!!!

 

Hi IB owners, got one in the 2013 NAM calender!

Funny, didn't get around to preparing any pictures of MY car.

 

Love it

 

my sisters

 

Oooh! A MINI One! I wish those were available in the US. I might have wound up with it instead of the Justa. (Then again, maybe not.)

 

It makes sense if you dont need the power of a Cooper to go for a MINI ONE

Lower insurance too

Its the same engine just with 98bhp instead of 122! And they go well too

Mum and my sister both have MINI ONE's.

Its not the power, its how you use it

 

Took me a minute to figure out your location... Northern Ireland!

Thanks for sharing these, what a blast to take delivery of a new car, especially a MINI! Lots of evident joy, very fun to see!

 

Thanks folks

Glad you like it! I was unsure at the start when I heard what colour she picked but I love it now

 

I just picked up my ice blue, premium and sport package with Toffee lounge leather, 17" infinite spoke alloy. Too cool to drive but I will. The bigger wheels do a lot for the ride. Much more solid. I know some people call it a retro color but I think it looks pretty classy. The toffee sport leather with the blue looks really really sharp together. The Kardon stereo is sweet. I have wanted a mini and i just went for a test drive. So much for that. Rule of thumb, leave your checkbook at home if you are going to test drive one of these.

 

Congrats on the new ride! I've not seen that color combo, eager for photos! Ice Blue is classy indeed.

 

Hello everyone! Beautiful Minis but I might be biased as I just got my 2012 Ice Blue mini hardtop two days ago

She's got an automatic trans, not a sport though unfortunately, but that's OK because I don't need to be speeding anyway. Seriously the most fun I've ever had driving a car!

Here's a pic of us together on our first day, sorry it's dark out, we spent all say cruisin' around. Now all I need is to find the perfect name!

I love this combo. the Toffee Lounge Leather really makes the interior standout. It looks really really cool (but I am not partial). Haven't uploaded all my pics yet. This color is very cool. Some lighting it looks Blue and other times it looks more of a retro turquiose or teal. I love everyone's combinations. I haen't added my stripes yet because I don't know if I want to do black with white pin stripes or visa versa. Any thoughts.

 

The "standard" stripes have the same color as the roof, and the pinstripe is the contrasting color. I can't tell from your pic if you have body-colored mirrors and roof or white. If white, then the factory stripes would be white with a black pinstripe.

Nobody says you have to follow that, though!

I'm still planning (sometime!!) on putting a red pin-stripe on mine instead of the black one. I think it will be a nice subtle touch.

 

Hardly had time for any pics of mine after just 3 weeks of ownership....when the weather is nice and I'm not at work I'll snap a few. Ice Blue with white roof and SODA stripe package....stripes, scuttle and interior dash match and then the mirrors are capped with a carbon fibre look..

Trying to upload but they are in my gallery now just dont know how to attach

 

I'll get some more pics of mine after all this snow melts and I can clean it properly.

Mine is an ice blue clubman, black roof and mirrors, black wheels, black leather lounge seats and black leather dash with white color-line. Looks great in my opinion.
