Im very close to placing an order in for a new f56 but i cant decide on a colour. Just wondered what colours others had chosen. Ive already ruled out a few colours not a van of any of the free colours so volcanic orange, pepper white and chili red. Also not too keen on black or melting silver. My favourites at the moment are BRG, blazing red, white silver and thunder grey. If possible could some of you send in photos of your f56's in these colors.

Much appreciated Mark.

What model are you going for Mark as I personally think some colours suit different models. If I was going out to buy my Mini again I'd definitely go down the BRG or Thunder Grey route. I really fancied Moonwalk Grey and my Mrs talked me out of it...note to self, never listen to the Mrs! Was keen on blazing red also until I saw it up close, bit of a funny colour when you see it and couldn't decide if I liked it.

Thunder grey is a funny colour, Looks good in some lights and in others its a horrible colour. I would look at BRG as there are next to non around so would give it that little more exclusivity

Its the rarity of brg and thunder grey that drew me to those. Ive only seen 2 brg f56 and neither had the jcw kit.

Oh no i wouldnt have brg with a red roof. Would need to black and then add red accents later down the line. I thought i liked moonwalk but there was one at the dealer and i kept looking and the more i looked at the less i liked it. Im leaning alot more towards brg it seems like a much nicer colour than the r56 colour. There is a brg r56 jcw just round the corner and im a big fan of that mini.

We have moonwalk on our Clubman and really like it as it suits the Fx models

I too also agonised a bit when I ordered my 2014 F56S. I almost went for silver, but then I saw the 'swatches' of the available colours when I was at Harry Fairbairn and saw the Deep Blue metallic. I instantly fell for it, added the black roof, mirror caps and wheels and I think it looks fantastic. Its also quite an uncommon colour and I have since added the official MINI decals.
