There's already a couple of PR / PO owners threads. I know I started the PO one.

When we were first looking at a Countryman I was set on white/black, but then we walked into the dealership I saw her sitting up on the platform and fell in love with the PR/PR.

The only thing I wish was different is I wish the wheels were the darker ones. I have had dark wheels on every car I have owned and I'm not sure I care for the bright silver wheels yet.

From this afternoon at the beach.


Our little additions include a stubby antenna, checkerboard sunroof and a R60 Checkerboard GoBadge so far.

I love the way they look, but I do not love the way they show brake dust. :(

I am beginning to like how they look, but I agree about the brake dust. We have only owned it for 3 weeks and I have washed the car 2-3 times due to bug guts from a couple of road trips. I don't think that is too obsessive lol

On the other hand I have washed/cleaned the wheels probably 6-7 times. I can't stand brake dust so I need to find something that helps it to not bake on the wheels. I don't want to be cleaning them them every other day haha.

Thoughts? Awesome. Did you order the blacked out headlights or "do it yourself"? I didn't upgrade to them on mine (could kick myself for it) but if possible, I'd love to black them AND the chrome line out on mine. Any suggestions for blacking out either?

Edit: I also see that you blacked out the door handles...again...(sorry about all the questions...) How'd you do that?

Here's mine. She's just about perfect, all I'd like is the JCW 19's.

Ok, I'm in!/QUOTE]

Hey! Zaftig was in Pburgh (Dormont) not too long ago. We didn't see you. Or any other CM, for that matter.

Generally, PR is a small group of aficionados. We don't need to tell everyone how great we are, because we know and that's what is important. Light White has 4 pages of chest-beating. What's that tell you?

I saw a PR/PR at my dealer the other day and I love that color! I like two tone MINI's too, but that color looks great without the contrasting roof.

The only time Zaftig is PR/PR is when I talk dirty to him. Then the color just rises up and over the roof.

Here's a few of mine. Despite living in New Mexico where it's sunny 98% of the time, I seem to only have pictures on cloudy days. It looks a lot redder on cloudy days vs sunny days. Maybe I'll take some pictures tomorrow.

The last one is for Sealy

I looked at the "red" door panels once or twice, but wasn't quite sure how they would go with the PR. Then found out they weren't available with my interior anyhow. Yours looks good - - - but, about that roof . . .
