Glad it exists! Back in the day, I saw an ur Quattro in this exact green. For sale at Sheppards in bishops stortford. Looked stunning!

Certainly wouldn't loose that in a car park!!

VERY brave choice, doubt audi will sell many at all in that colour (but I would love to pull up to the local golf club and park it amongst the sea of white/grey/black non-descript audi/bmw/merc just to see peoples reaction)

My purple Mk4 Mondeo

[GOG440]

Allegedly "Imperial Blue" I only know of one other wedge painted this colour, but it was quite a common colour on later TVR's

wow! That colour almost makes me want an Audi.....almost!

Looks paler than Java Green and more yellow than this one off Peridot Green one.

It could just be a one off itself as Audi will do that through their Exclusive programme if you pay them enough.

My old Jdm s2000 in Grand Prix white was pretty rare, only sold them in that colour in the UK on the last gt100 editions

Ford launched the new Fiesta in a peculiar cream colour, see very few on the roads... I think the colour is called 'Spa'



Audi also did a very dark, solid green on the Mk1 TT. Don't know the name of the colour and can't find a picture, but it looked absolutely superb.

Fixed that for you, .

My folks ordered a Velvet red mini - available 02/03 and I have only seen 1 other in that colour



Currently have a Z4 is Mojave brown

[ZesPak]

Might be coincidental, but I know two people with the "red velvet" mini and at least 3 with that colour Z4, one of them just down the street.

Far from uncommon colours imho!

[gregs656]

Velvet or night fire red? Night fire is similar and more common, available '10 - '13 I think

O/T but one of my then best mates Dads was MD of Sheppards back in the 80s/90s (It was my mates persuasion that saw them set up the bike shop next door) and I remember him taking home a green UR

[TTOBES]

An "earthy" coloured Golf V5. No UK dealer sticker or number plates.

[e21Mark]

Always liked Laguna Seca blue. (think this is the only UK e21 in this colour)



Can vary massively, dependent on ambient lighting.

Great colour, but very rare. Almost looks brown without sunlight on it, but looks superb with the sun on it.

My favourite rare MINI colour has to be Silk Green, preferably with the ultra-rare (I've been around MINIs from Day 1 and have only ever seen it once) Emerald green interior!



Laguna Green is even rarer, a MINI Yours colour that only ran for a few months late on in the R55-59 run. Yet to see one on the road, which could be down to the money they asked for it when new!

Never seen one in this colour before. Apparently the 300C in 5.7 estate form is quite a rare thing, and I kind of want one.

Lovely colour, shame about the tat.

I quite like that for some reason - couldn't see myself driving it though!
