I was recently lucky enough to aquire a new white mini countryman, i ordered it with silver alloys however it came with black alloys Attached File  553897_10150649290131334_576336333_9298646_1172462061_n1.jpg   122.92K   17 downloadsAttached File  DSC077181.jpg   1.07MB   11 downloads! So what i am asking for is an opinion, which do you think looks best as the garage are willing to change them no problem... I am a 31 yr old mum if that makes any difference.....!

Silver looks better, and they're easier to keep clean/wash :thumbsup:

I tried my very hardest to keep Bini bashing to a minimum too :angel:

is Bini bashing big mini bashing lol? When you have a baby you have to 'upgrade' the countryman is the compromise whilst still having a bit of mini in your life :lol:

BMW MINI = Bini :lol:

But I totally agree, when you need space, reliability and practicality (which old.... cough.... proper minis have none of :lol: ) the Countryman is the best compromise whilst still having a MINI.
