It's my own car but sunspot yellow on a ZS is rare, only 15 built. The whole monogram range made for some stunning cars!

Number 1 of 15.

Bit of a boring one, but on the way to work today I stopped next to a 64-plate Scirocco in (I'm 99% sure) this colour, Limestone Grey:



But I can't find any photos of Sciroccos in this colour, and it's not currently offered on the VW configurator confused
There's Indium Grey



Another quirky colour is Aztec. This is the best photo I can find and I've only seen one in this colour on the road.



The purple colour shown before is Ultra Violet.

Following on from Blake, I have never seen another Ram the same colour as my old one.
Probably popular in the US but not here. I think its called Atlantic Blue.


one less here now too as I sold it to a chap in Germany.

Was a 9-3 I saw, an S reg if I remember, the 900 and 9-3 look the same to me.

We're going to have to take this to the SAAB nerds
That red/white bit across the back is 900
The spoiler looks 900
S reg should be 9-3
900 should have an extra set of mud flaps half way along
At the front I thought 900 had a black bit on the bumper so that looks 9-3
Anyone else?
ETA just spotted it's LHD
registered as S reg when imported?

Should add, not my picture, only decent photo I could find on the web, imagine that brown but on a 9-3, which would look the same.

Just remembered saw a new bright red A6, just a normal TDI one, really suited it, much nicer than white.

Nautilus blue on a lotus fairly rare, can look almost black when wet, then green and blue when sunny....

Honda did a few for the S2000:



And my favourite - New Imola Orange Pearl:

A guy I know of has one in that colour.



Oh... and it's running 655hp...
