Interesting colour - first one I've seen. Is that colour called Black Olive? Looks black, with a hint of green in the 1st photo.

thanks for the kind compliments - yes Tatts you,ve hit the nail on the head. As with most monogram/metallic colours its very difficult to photograph the visual effect of the paintwork. on a dull day ot just looks black, but put a bit of sunshine on it and it comes alive- a very dark green.

I wanted a black olive zs180 when the colour first came out, but ended up going for a typhoon one, which was very nice. after a dalliance with the moodyblue CDti, which wasnt really for me, I was looking for a pearl black 260, but Blackolive came along, and I had to buy.

Stocktake, I need to do a photoshoot. Just need a decent location and bright blue skies

My ZT260 was one of the very Mk1 SE cars to have the Apex alloys even though they were in the brochure specification but they weren't ready when the car was produced. I rang MGR & complained hense to say they sent me a set! which Beadles of Gillingham fitted & damaged one of the rims so had to get me another!
