Saw one of these in that baby blue colour, or is it Sky blue, on black wheels and it looked very plastic, overblown and cheap to be honest. Seems very colour sensitive.

Update, looks like Yas Marina blue from the website, appropriate .... Tanzanite would have been a better choice for the colour i think. The reg plate trying to spell Emma was a bit crass also.

Agree, some of the colours are quite challenging. I think it looks best in grey/black hues, but that is just me. I think the gold and indeed the light blue are definitely attention grabbing, but I'm too much of an old duffer to be able to cope with that. Horses for courses.

I will not comment on number plates though. Some things are best left unsaid.

Only two sleeps to go for me now. Getting very excited!!!!

Totally agree on the colours, maybe I am getting old too. Your's is a very good hue.

Hope you enjoy !

Sweet car! Is that Park Lane... The M4 in the background looks red! Some sort of individual colour?

Yes, Park Lane. The red one is a special colour as is the banana yellow one that they have in the showroom upstairs. The red is quite nice actually but just not for me.

Saw what i think is a Yas Marina blue one at Southampton BMW a couple of weeks ago, must admit it is quite striking, i like it.
