Really interested to see what the orange looks like in the metal. Any news of what colours are being dropped I've heard volcanic is one of them.

Liking the Solaris orange, but would have to see it in person to know if it was orange enough for me lol.

Not sure about the light changes, the rears are a bit naff.

Nice to see black surrounds finally make it as an option though.

Tail lights are horrible. Good to see we are finally getting some black bits as an option

I really like the changes made to the headlights. Makes the front look a bit sleeker. Looks better having the full led ring and I like the integrated indicator.

I think the rear lights could have been done better I like the union flag design. But I do prefer them to pre lci never liked the current lights on anything other than a red car they look humongous. If they had been able to do something closer to the GP and ev concept with a 3d proud design would have been better I think.

Don't really understand the big deal with the badge change. It looks a little more modern I suppose.

Having seen one real picture of solaris orange it does seem like it's going to a really nice pearly colour a lot like Peugeot power orange which I'm a big fan of

I can see there being nightmares trying to clean in between those “spokes” on the new badges !!!

It's cotton buds you'll need to clean the new badge. I can see a lot of OCD folk getting angsty ;)

I'd like those new Mini badges, give me an excuse to break out the detailing brushes again..... they're gathering dust just now, as is the bucket, and the shampoo....

I can never understand why a company changes its logo. Imagine the costs involved of changing all of the MINI logos on the dealers premises, flags, banners, letterheads etc. etc.

The company I work for quite regularly change its logo and as you say Pete every thing gets changed ...don’t know why

It’s ridiculous in my opinion.
There’s also the exorbitant prices that graphic designers charge as well.
If you have a well known brand logo just keep it as is.

Keeps folk in black polonecks and square spectacles in a job I suppose

[M600-RKJ]

When they announced a new badge I was expecting something spectacular. Then I saw it and it was the same badge that has been used for a year or 2 just now the cars have caught up

The new logo has been slowly introduced over the past 18-24 months. Not a fan of the rear lights though, in Ireland they are specable
