Thats right Ive finally opened by bonnet up and found out its not cosmos black or astro black its moonlight black metallic colour code A25/9

Whooooo! problem solved

LOL
Well done! I dont think that was even suggested!
I think it might be quite an exclusive club!

WOW I'm glad that's resolved

Don't think I've heard of Moonlight Black was it a special edition

God knows

I cant say ive ever seen another one, I was surprised when I read it inside the bonnet! I did think it had a bit of blue to it though!

Its just black never stays clean for long so it always looked black not moonlight black!

I want to line up a Moonlight, and Astro and a Cosmos to see the difference! Good work

Better do it on a sunny day! The difference should be quite plain then!

WAIT

Im now thinking I read it wrong LOL

I thinks its actually midnight black

I will look again tomorrow to confirm lol

My money is on Midnight Black lol

midnight moonlight both black

Shame I like the name moonlight black better! Would be a great Darkside colour!

Down boy!

there's a plate under the bonnet Li, has the colour codes on it

When you get the no. Li check it here!
Oh by the way if it reads interchange yellow then you know you got the wrong number!

MINI Paint Colour Codes






Here’s a list of colour codes for the MINI, this now covers the
first generation (R50/R53/R52) and second generation (R56) MINI, with
some prototype and Clubman (R55) colours as well.

That doesnt have Midnight or moonlight black on it

Good spot Max its on now!
I don't think it will be Li's tho as it was intro'd in 08!

I need to go and have a look at why my car isnt in that paint code list!!!!!!!!!

If it is midnight black I have a 54 2005 reg and it says on that list it was from 2008+?

stange!

What was the paint code? We might be able to unravel the mystery with it!

If it's solid black it can only be Black11

Give me 20 mins and I will open it up and find out....

Is the paint code next to the writing where it says what name the colour is called then?

sould be all the plate

Sould look like this, the code A25/9 is on the left above words Astro Black

^ where is that under the bonnet?

yeah under the bonnet on either the left or right back of the engine bay.
