Monotone is the future, the birds love it and you don't get the comments from everyone asking "Is it a cooper?"

I like that. I would hate it if anyone thought it was a cooper. monotone is uber cool.

Quite the opposite in fact (not sure about the birds comment), because my Mk2 Cooper is factory monotone black, I've heard it said at many a show that it couldn't possibly be a real Cooper :?
