Yes, and there are some pretty foul "''70's" colour schemes, Bracken, Harvest Gold AKA hearing aid beige, Russet Brown AKA Dairy Milk, but my favourite is the TC Coupe in Lagoon



I do have a soft spot for Damask Red however.........

Between leaving school and joining the RAF I worked on the forecourt of a garage - that was way back in 1972 when attendants came out to put petrol in customers' cars. There was an older guy there who worked part time at weekends and he'd just bought a brand new 1.8 Marina saloon in Black Tulip (I think that's right). It had a red pinstripe down the side and a red interior and looked absolutely lovely (to my 16 year old eyes anyway).

I do like that Brian, always had a soft spot for the Coupes since my mate's dad had one back in the day

Russet Brown and Harvest Gold are such cool colours...............for Minis
I've got a Champagne Beige '86 Mayfair which sound nicer than it actually is It goes lovely with its brown velour interior though

Black Tulip with Geranium interior

Here is Graeme's (GBS100) rather tasty TC automatic "Christine" in just such a colour

Thread moved to a more appropriate forum. Re-direct left in old. This may be the better forum as threads get ‘lost’ very quickly in the General Forum.
