Ah I see,

Doesn't give me that option on my phone though.

Oh well.

Looks really clean & original, but I wonder what happened to the fresh air vents?

Beautiful car and nice steering wheel - very rally. Not sure about the change of road wheels though - surprisingly I actually prefer the original ones.

Reviving an oldish thread here but I'm looking at ordering some paint for the mini to get rid of the underseal on the sills.

Could somebody in the know tell me what colour my car is? Been trying to research it but can't seem to find out.

Any help would be great.

IF it's the original colour it would have been Glacier White BLVC59 http://mk1-performan...o.uk/pdf/73.pdf

....chances are it's had a fresh coat of paint at some time so get a touch up can of BLVC59 to check before forking out on gallons of Glacier White paint. If it isn't an exact match you'll need to get the paint colour matched.

Thanks for the info, all the info I could find online was a bit unclear. Was just going to order a litre of paint.

Yes the mini has been painted and it matches the original paint inside.

Just in the process of fitting a new exhaust and manifolds, literally just ordered a disc brake kit from mini spares as well. Got some new dampers too. Will just need to purchase some new cones before it goes back on the road in the spring as the roads are terrible where I live.

Do I go for standard or red dots?
