This is the colour I have settled on. Lava Orange so its a orangey red depending on the light.

This is it photoshopped onto the car.





It's from a lotus.



Looks also aluminous in the flesh

Similar as in orange but trust me it's not the same. This looks so different and darker than any orange Noble I've seen. In the light it looks a orangey red. When I first see the colour I couldn't decide what colour tag to give it.

Agree, it's a great colour in the flesh, saw it on the P1.

Ha ha.

My other option was Chilli Red. It's a lotus Aradent Red but with Gold flake. Not managed to see one in the flesh.
