I am a member of CROC but I have a secret love for BRG. If I was not able to buy an MC40 last year, it was between IB or BRG. Also, one of the great loves in my life has BRG all over her. Well insted of me explaining.....

Just picked up yesterday !!!

My wife and I picked up Austin yesterday. It's been raining ever since so the only pictures I have are the three I took at the dealership when we picked him up.

I wouldn't trade my BRG MCS for any other MINI color. Not that the others aren't nice as well, I just love what I have.

When I ordered my 2005 MCS, my wife had me talked into Dark Silver/Black. The neck day I called and changed it to BRG/W. And glad I did. Would not have any other color. It always gets the look and looks great after a good coat of wax.

Hey, this might be a weird question. But how do I actually 'sign up' to be part of the BRG owners' club?

Orange Wheels

I have a pure BRG standard mini and need another set of wheels for my winter tires. I noticed Tirerack has some lovely orange units.

Has anyone been brave enough to try this combo?????

What a great collection of photos! Nice stripes, pretty dog. A fabulous color, and for so MINI reasons.

Yep. Stuckey's a purebred, Louis is a mix. Both are "rescues", but I'm the lucky one.

Stuck came my way when Lou went missing for a month last winter. Louis was found, praise God; and neither of them were too happy about the other for some time.

Good for you!! My first dog (an Akita)was a rescue, and my current pal (Rex the Rottie) was also a rescue. As are all the cats.

When I first got my MINI I was looking into doing the roof as well. But after awhile I just thought I would leave it alone for the moment. White does seem to be a bit boring but some of the stuff I have seen is a bit over the top, no pun intended , for me. But I keep looking.

bpetzold, I LOVE the chrome bonnet scoop!!! I am going to order next week, and was dead set on PH until finding out it was revoked in April; now I am looking through every non-silver/grey color there is and am really liking the BRG/W with UJ mirror caps, white bonnet stripes and the chrome scoop. Yours looks great!

I have had Marvin since mid-March (which is about when these photos were taked), but I had misplaced the disc with the photos, only to discover it this morning.

So, after a bit of a delay, here are a couple of snaps. They aren't the best quality, but they do at least look like him.
