    Silk green in my opinion was one of the best colours at the launch of the mini back in 2001.
    If they still done it I would do it.

    I remember there was some photoshop images of the R56 Clubman going about before it was realeased and they were painted in silk green with a silver roof and silver back trims and it looks brilliant.

    The colour range now is the worst its ever been.
    I wish they would put the Campden funky silver colour across the range as its really smart.

    Silk Green was a colour which did not sell well and it was dropped pretty quickly, I really did not like it at all.

    I agree about the white silver which is really smart, but if they released it now all the "special edition" owners might not be very happy.

    I reckon this Clubbie might just MELT if you drove it on a sunny day* - IT'S SO CHOCLATEY - like Coco Pops on wheels!
    Still, the weans could wipe their fingers (and anything else) on the seats and you'd never notice till you stuck to them.

    Mini have a tradition of this - leccy blue was 'S' only for 2 years, then expanded across the range. Dark silver lasted longer as an 'S' only car than I thought it would, but again was trickled down the range


    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs
