swap my mini

I am looking to swap my 2007 MCS Red for a MCS blue. Is there an easy way to go about this? Nothing wrong with the car, I just want the blue version.

Vinyl wrapping it is probably the easiest way

Wouldn't it be a b__ch to do the jambs, under bonnet, etc.
I think it'd look tacky.

Vinyl wrapping costs too much. Looks like the only option is to sell and buy another one.

You can do amazing things with a rattle can.

Unless you can find someone else that wants to swap, possible, but not likely, the best option is to sell what you have and buy what you want. Look at it as a good way to upgrade to a newer, lower mileage, possibly even new MINI that is just what you are looking for.
