Default Placing Order tonight - still undecided on colour

As above but me and the wife are still undecided - on Saturday we had decided on red with full black leather but now love Moonrock and Berlina with full red. Does anyone have any pictures of the above combo's as not seen either in the flesh.

Thanks

Cuzza & Welcome

I have just done through the same problem, and it was driving me

I have had 2 Silverstone (the fastest ) and my next was going to be Moonrock as I wanted to change to another colour.
But I was unsure about the Moonrock and another member put a post up about seeing a Moonrock on the road and said it looked "dull" (thanks Ianl) so visited around 5 dealers and looked at all the colours and came to the conclusion it has to be Silverstone Red/Black.

I have to say, the Moonrock doesn't look good in dull weather or when dirty.

Could you also say the same for black though. When it's clean, but it needs to be kept clean.

I like the moonrock/full red... I think.

I have a red one, bought it secondhand, and it had all 3 spoiler options.

I hit a kerb with the front one, and took it off to fix, but prefer the car without it. The boot spoiler is nice, so will leave it on. Not sure about the rear skirts, think they look a bit of an after thought, so might take them off soon.

Red is oboviously the right choice, although I would like red seats

Both the best looking, the most stylish not forgetting the fastest colour.

I used to own a berlina black with full red and there was nothing as good imo. I however am now buying moonrock with full red. I still have reservations about this colour combo but it is the best choice I could have. I wanted the full red interior and the only choice I had was MR, Silverstone or Black. The black though nice is a PITA to keep clean and looking good. The MR is easier but not as striking on the road as the black. I still have my doubts about MR but it is on order and I will stick with it.
