I'm going for an early look with my rebuild with mk1 styling but can't decide what colour?

People have said metallics don't really look right with mk1 style so was wondering if people had pics of their minis done in classic (older) colours.

I've been thinking of yukon grey but everyone I've shown has said it looks like primer etc etc.

Any pics would be appreciated....need to decide in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks
Andy.

The grey ones can look good. Personally I love the tartan red ones and almond green. Not sure if that was a Mk 1 colour though or introduced for the mk2

Sorry mate, no more pics. It was a Miniworld feature car quite a few years back but, I can't remember when. Maybe somebody on here will have more piccies.

Why not go for something a bit different

Like a cheese yellow

Eating cheese while skiing is very gay though. Just like metros. Doing it with cake is much better. Saw it on Jeremy Kyle!
