Inspired by the recent discussions on boring car colours, it got me thinking about the best exterior/interior colour combos. Some colour combos work well with certain cars.

I have two in mind:

Car: Alfa Romeo Spider (2008-)
Exterior paintwork: White
Interior leather: Orange
Why? A stunning combo, perfect for the Summer months

Car: Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Brake (i.e. the estate version)
Exterior paintwork: Designo Hyacinth Red Metallic
Interior leather: Black
Why? A very classy look that stands out from the usual boring colours. The black interior looks very cosseting in this car.

So, what are your favourite colour combos and on which cars?

Range Rover in metallic green or red, no privacy glass and cream leather with contrast stitching, because it's so damn elligant and the perfect combo for a noble machine like a Range Rover


Bright red or dark blue Ferrari with white leather, again because it's classy

Those orange BMWs with oyster leather, it lifts the interior

Basically any light trim is better than black

Red leather inside a Black BMW. Someone at work has a new 340i M Sport Tourer in Black with the Red Leather, it looks lovely.

Apparently red leather isn't for everyone but +1 on red leather and black paint.

I've got red leather with Silverstone II exterior on my M5 and it looks bloody brilliant cloud9

There's a McLaren round here which is almost dairy-milk purple with orange interior - looks far better than it ought to.

Surely the Ferrari classic of TdF over Crema should make an appearance here?
