Hyde Park Regal Champagne

I found this car on the MINI site in the Gallery for the Hyde Park Regal BUT the accents are NOT Hot Chocolate, they are Cool Champagne in color. I can't find a way to build the Regal Hyde Park with Cool Champagne roof, mirrors, bonnet stripes and side stripes.

Any help? To see the car go to:
http://t.miniusa.com/models/special/hydepark/index.html and then scroll down to the Gallery.

That champagne color is fairly new...will also be on another Clubman special edition that is coming soon...I expect the "builder" just isnt up to date with them yet.

The builder is def not up to date. We tried to build a Hardtop S with the Hyde Park Hot Choc accents on Mar 30th but the dealer was not able to submit the order. The factory told him Hot Choc was discontinued and the Cool Champagne replaced it. Our MA wasnt able to provide much more insight as to Cool Champagne. We researched a bit more online and decided while not our first choice, the Cool Champagne still looked very nice and placed the order. Production number was received a week ago but we are still in "On Order" status.

I can't feel sorry for you as I would've preferred the Regal Champagne...I'm jealous in case you haven't noticed.

What interior did you order? Mine has Polar Beige

Wanna buy a slightly new Chocolate Hyde Park?

Appreciate the offer but we will have to pass. Interior is also Polar Beige but I need to lease the vehicle due to business purposes. What is it about the Hot Choc that you don't like? I thought it looked pretty classy.

My wife got a Hyde Park Clubman (non-S) with the Chocolate brown stripes and Polar Beige interior. Have to agree, they look black at night but we are O.K. with it. Why not just buy replacement hood and side stripes in the champagne color and vinyl wrap the roof and presto, your very own color Hyde Park?

The builder is finally up to date. The Cool Champagne does look nice. Supposedly our Mini is leaving the paint shop. I think the longest part will be the transport to Arizona.
