Mini Colours and trim, 1997 onwards
I have three brochures from this time and in each the available
colours are different! I've noted underneath each colour which
ones were in which brochure.
I hope this page may serve as a useful resource for anyone wondering
about colours on the last of the Classic Rover Minis, those that were
airbagged and otherwise known as the multi-point injected cars or mpi
for short. |
