Does your TVR look better in rain, or sun?

Personally, the way the rain runs off the polished bodywork of my Chim, I'm thinking the former. It looks glorious, I just wish there was some kind of startrek technology forcefield so I could leave the roof off

When my Chim is fully waxed up I love the look of it when the rain is all beaded up, especially when the sun is shining afterwards. So I guess for me it's a bit of both.

I have a metallic green car which needs the sun to reflect off the metally bits to look it's best. It also looks pretty good under the light bulb in the garage.

k.k.

Sun!!!

I have built up so many coats of Meguiars that it's like looking in a mirror. I like leaving my car next to another supposedly clean silver car - there's no comparison really. in fact, after all the Sh%t weather, my P&J is FILTHY, so I am skiving off to give her a wash this afty.

I've got the Chameleon Blue which does look great in the sun (blue to green to purple) but in the rain it looks cool because it tends to go green with purple spots!

My vote has to be the sun tho 'cos that's when I get to accelerate hard and that always looks the best

I've only had my Chim a month or so, and it hasn't stopped bloody raining since I got it

If we ever get a glint of sun I will let you know.

Mind you, it does look good in the rain

My colour looks better the darker it is. So, I would say it looks better in the rain.
