Accents finished in Nottingham Green, a nod to Paul Smith’s hometown, appear on the side mirrors, grille and wheel hub covers. The same colour is used on one of the two available roof designs. The alternative roof features black stripes in matte and gloss finishes. All versions get 18-inch black alloy wheels and specially designed MINI logos in Black Blue.

Interior Details and Finishes

Inside, the cabin features dark knitted surfaces and striped patterns inspired by Paul Smith fabrics. The Nightshade Blue sports seats combine Vescin upholstery with knitted inserts. Colourful stitching on the steering wheel adds a subtle reference to the designer’s signature stripe pattern.
