Hi all, I went to get some paint today, where I found out that my mini is actually charcoal rather than anthracite grey, and that the interior is the Monaco Light Stone Beige half leather. I have been wondering if anyone knows why there are very few coopers out there with this trim? Also - what do you personally think of it? I liked it at first but now I am unsure! Haha

Thanks!

I love it! I'm a big fan of light interiors. Never seen that combination on a cooper. (I've got anthracite myself, but it has the half leather with black).

I personally like this interior had s couple now but it's not half leather but half vinyl and was under the impression it is called balmoral interior Monaco is black vinyl with cream centres

That combined with BRG exterior would be really nice - oh look, my car is green!!  I think it looks nice mate, I have cream/beige buckets in mine and retrimmed rear bench.  Always good to be different :D

I love that interior, has a really modern retro vibe to it.

I have a charcoal mini, but it had a black cooper interior. It seems to be a rare colour as most minis are, as you say anthracite. I think it's a great colour and changes around from navy to black to purple in different light. I'm changing almost everything about my mini, including putting in a light interior, but that colour is definitely staying. I think it looks great, like Miniac86 says the modern / retro / tartan thing is very in just now. Check out a Golf edition 30 interior.
