I think the so called dull colours are a lot more interesting than people give them credit for and yours shows that...

A nice clean car is always a good thing and yours looks very clean!

Dont get me wrong I do actually like the colour it's all just a big wind-up, I like the subtle understatedness of it but if I had been spending the 30 odd grand I'd have picked Firefrost

True, the brighter colours can be nice, but I deliberatly chose silver for mine as it doesnt show up the marks as much and I want to use the car and not get annoyed by the odd little mark which you cant see with a silver car...

The silver is not a flat silver and when detailed it has a faint purply tinge to it, it is much deeper than a 'silver' car as my bodyshop took great pains to tell me when they were fitting the side skirts lol!
