In a sea of Generic Black
Parked at the front of the office today, came back from lunch, surrounded by black!
Maybe I am biased but I like a bit of colour, but then again, perhaps some like to melt in to the background! Oh yeh, photo been through one of those photo apps Simon

I don't mind black. It's when you see a row of silver cars it makes me want to

Lol just like the company car park here. Loads of black, mixed in with various shades of grey and silver. Then my solar red ZTT.
All the other colours are nice enough on their own, just all rather uninspired and samey when you see them all together. |

Looks fantastic there, Simon! Such a striking colour, and car.

There's nothing wrong with a nice silver car, but when there's a few of them in a line (either on the road or in a car park) it just looks plain and boring.
(They are usually Fords or Vauxhalls, which may explain things better!)

Light colour cars stay cleaner and reflect heat away better innit...
My first car was black, and I hated it with a vengeance! but way back then, most cars were Black, there was very little choice ... ... |
