Sold as purple.... MrV has spotted them sold under purple too. They call Midnight blue Navy generally, unless thats another colour again

Maybe people who are colour blind shouldn't post such things


Scoob, Don't worry, I'll be sticking to White if I can keep my car out of the dealer for more than a couple of weeks and bite the bullet and sell it.

Come on AE, Silverstone sucks. I have it and its boring. Dark, either black or Midnight is the way to go...

Don't discount RNBP until you've seen it, Col! Midnight Blue is very very nice though.

(Mind you, I fear that within 12 months, RNBP will have become the new MCB )

Dark is the future.

Everyone on here HAS to admit this: Silverstone is the classic colour of the S. There is only one classic mix
Silverstone, Red, Black. Its what Tochigi`s team wanted. Its what we saw in 98.

Now classic doesn`t mean good though. Silverstone is common. On a meet it looks drab. But when on its own it looks nice.


Now dark colours are the nicest looking.

Heres the carps no holding back appraisal of all the colours out there - remember, no offence intended:

Silverstone : common as muck, original but common.
Black: Stylish and GREAT to look after and clean.
White: Unique and sweet.
Green: [B] Rubbish, looks like a Del sol that

I agree with your list completely CC. Silver is just too common on all cars these days. I think it's the Audi effect - how often do you see a non silver Audi.

Black is great

With a bit of luck, yes!

It's due at the dealership on 17 December, and I'm supposed to be picking it up on Saturday 20. So, weather permitting on Sunday 28, we'll be coming along to the Derbyshire meet in it.
