Default Dealers colours

In my hunt for the perfect car the colour description given on offered ad's is most amusing. Holographic silver (could be any silver) and Laguna Blue (was def trophy blue, trophy yellow usually gets some good ones too) are my personal favourites so far. Anyone seen any other colourful descriptions?

Oh yes, you too. Hopefully I'll be driving a nice 75/ZT in time for the next meet!

I think this is referring to the Monogram Moonshine silver. Not described very well if so - but it is kind of 'rainbowy'!

Cars are only "Silver" when on a dealers site. Once you buy them they revert to being grey. My personal fav was my old Cit ZX, it was sold to me as "road salt grey".. And it was brill! I never had to clean it!!

Aha! that may be true, but the car was a Cit diesel auto ZX same as my current blue one, but older. :lol:

Either way, I hate cleaning cars! lifes too short for that sort of thing.
