Where Is Your Colour Code Hiding?

Unlike most cars that have the paint code on the door jamb, Mini likes to be a bit different. Here's where to find it:
- Open the Bonnet (Hood): Pop open the bonnet and head over to the right-hand side (driver side Cyprus, UK, etc.).
- Peek Inside the Fender: Look inside the fender, above the tyre (tire). You'll find a sticker on the inner fender wall.
- Locate the Code: The sticker contains various information about your Mini, including the paint code. It might be labeled "Colour" or "Paint" and will typically be an alphanumeric code like "668/9".
How Do You Decode Your Mini's Paint Code?

This code is like your Mini's unique fingerprint for its paint colour. It tells you the exact shade and finish, ensuring you get a perfect match when ordering touch-up paint or having any bodywork done.
