i had a black clubman, and you would burn yourself touching the car to get in on a hot day.. really awful considering you swelter in a mini nomatter what...

but if its done well, there is no better colour in terms of looks and class

couldnt really say to tell you the truth as the car isnt on the road yet. But when working in it i dont find it uncomfortable even in summer. i thought about how hot it would be so thats why the roof is white so my head doesnt get hot

that's good logic there......

My Mini is black with a white roof also, it does get hot on a sunny day but no hotter than the wifes Mazda 626. I drive mine every day of the week and once you are moving it cools down fair bit.

Kind of makes you proud to be an AUSSIE

What about black vinyl seats I imagine they would get pretty hot, problem is I like black as a colour for my interior but I also like being able to sit on my seats without scalding my bum

yeah it blows, black looks the best but you'd stick to that like an egg to a dry frypan..
having had experience with both a totally black car, and all black seats..
the temperature DOES increase over other colours... namely the colours i had before, light blue and cream.
seat covers will fix that though.. can still be black.. but allow some air to circulate through

Its not a mini pope mobile but it is a pope mobile and its for sale!

Yeh black looks awsome... I saw a black morris the other day (in sydney, surry hills area) it was from ACT i think... The paint looked pretty old, wasn't too shiny, but if it was done properly it would have looked nice. I'd go for it..
