The latest Mini World has a rally replica with a roof mounted spot light.
Are they really that rare. One came mounted in my mini roof.
Now I have to weld up the hole a repair the hood lining.

Interesting, its creamier than I realised. A bit like the UK Old English White.

From what I gather it is pretty close to OEW.

In the flesh it looks a lot lighter than the previous photo.
The one below was taken at the same time but with a 50mm lens.
I believe this to be closer to the real colour.

Yep, OEW is like that too. It can look anything from almost white to beige.

Its interesting that BMC Australia didn't use the same names for colours as the UK, but many of the traditional British colours seem to have had an almost identical Aussie equivalent.

Either way, it looks great in that colour. What is it really? An 850?
