MG/Coral: I have it, and love it. The only thing I'd say is try and see it in the flesh, as the Coral is hard to capture in photos and looks a lot nicer. Can look a little garish in sine photo's.

Saddle wasn't a choice at the time for me, but I would consider that too.

As for Mineral Grey, I think it really suits the 3/4 series.

Mineral and coral is a very nice combo. I am awaiting my F36 on Monday next week in this colour scheme;



Are you going for standard 18's? I did, just not a fan of any of the 19" options really.

my test drive car was MG with coral combo. Looks really nice. You need to see it in flesh as above and you will love it.

I went for MG/CR. I'd swap out the silver inlays for something dark, it makes such a difference and uplifts the cheap look of the large hexagon/brushed aluminium panel near the gear lever.

Also, leather dash removes the red lower portion of the dashboard when selecting CR. Im not 100% sure if this is an option on the 4GC, but on mine to really adds a touch of luxury to the interior.

I have once or twice wished I'd selected black paint, but as its an M Sport I'm happy I did, with black paint there is no contrast on the rear bumper.

Is the leather colour the same for your car and ChrisJW's ? They look quite different.

I quite like the the red-brown in your photo (or is it saddle ?), but no so sure about the same colour on the lower dash. Looks quite odd, especially the contrast with the lights switch.

The photo of CR is Chris' car is too far towards pillarbox red for my liking.

As you say, it's all down to personal preference.

The colour on the configurator is nothing like what it's like in real life.

Mine is the dark ash with metal inlay. In low light its black, but in sunlight you can see the black grain, there is no brown to it at all.

Poor exposure in this pic.

Anthracite is very dark brown/grey under most hue's, Ash is black. The metal inlay is a nice touch too, well worth the money. Saying that, I kinda wish i'd gone for piano black, but with the black leather dash the black wood really works. Horses for courses at the end of the day.

Completely agree.

There were some good pictures posted a few weeks back, but I can't find them now.

OP - I don't find it a difficult colour to live with, but only you can answer that question in about your own car.

Definitely worth taking a trip to a well stocked dealer and seeing which you prefer back to back against others
