Having taken the car for a test drive, I have decided to go ahead and order a new JCW.

My current colour combination is BRG with a white roof and white bonnet stripes. Anyone else have the same combo which they could post a pic of?

The dealer had the silver white colour which did look nice so its got me thinking maybe a different combo could work.

Show me what you guys have got!

Looks awesome. The standard car is way to high and looks so much better once dropped!

I think that is Rebel Green rather than BRG, although I thought Rebel was only on the JCW, unless the colours have changed since we specced my wifes car.

Here's one of a friends car (PHer Dunny) from Lohen's website....



I think the grey suits it with the red accents & the American spec orange side markers on the arches

The dealer I went to had this one to view. Apologies for the bad quality pictures but the colour looks really good in the flesh.

I drive around Scotland including Glencoe last June in my caterham! Had to sell it though as I have purchased a house without a garage for now. How was the Mini around those road a as I will probably be heading back this June in the Mini?

It was absolutely perfect. I went last december and the roads were fairly stty but it held its own really well. If you've done it in a Caterham, you'll have no problems in the mini.
You kind of have to force it into making a mistake, but its very progressive and the lift off oversteer with the traction completely off is really nice. Gives you plenty of warning shot before going horribly wrong.

My only criticism of the JCW is (for me) it doesn't have the brake feel I believe it should. Other than that, get it in sport mode and go have fun smile

This was the long term Cooper S (not JCW) that belonged to Motoringfile, it is BRG. Difficult to tell in that pic though..

Rebel Green is a little darker, and is only available on the JCW;

My wife's JCW we picked up in December. It has the JCW pro suspension kit and the JCW pro exhaust to start with.

White silver is beautiful.

OK guys car ordered in BRG with a white scroof and white bonnet stripes. I just think it's a real classy colour and it will look cool if two minis are parked on the drive (my wife having recently got a BRG Cooper S 5 door!!!) The pic below shows how good the colour looks!

Hi All

Here's a snap of my JCW. Bought it last year with a 1000 miles on it and have 8000 very happy miles since. Trading it in in March for a new Discovery as need the space for work. Has been one of my favourite cars of all time. It's loaded with factory options...if anyone wants an automatic JCW at a great price please let me know!
