I have grey ones... I think it is a wrap though of standard white ones.
That's correct, usually called Anthracite Grey on white which means white on the inside/grey outside. It is indeed a foil wrap on white profile window just as the rosewood, oak, old mahogany widows are. This seems to be the latest fashion increasing in demand and as so is about the same price wise as the others.Residence 9 Grey is stained through.

Thanks, I wasn't clear in my OP I want the UPVC to match (within reason) my aluminium doors hence I don't want the grained effect.
I'm concerned about a painted product as it's not something I've experienced.
I'm in the same boat, however my particular 'wallet drainer' AKA the wife is, insistent that only aluminium windows will be a true match for the massive aluminium bi-folds she wants. If you combined her window budget and kitchen budget you'd be well on the way to a bloody DB7....can I have a DB7 no I can't I'm concerned about a painted product as it's not something I've experienced.

We had a UPVC conservatory in a sort of cream colour and it seemed we could pick the RAL colour of our choice...I don't see why UPVC windows would be any different?
There's a grey one on here....http://www.rehauhome.com/upvc-windows/uPVC-Coloured-Windows
We have a winner !There's a grey one on here....http://www.rehauhome.com/upvc-windows/uPVC-Coloured-Windows
I've just spoken to the nearest showroom and it seems Rehau do grey in a smooth foil as well as the usual woodgrain.
Thanks

Get some nice aluminium windows to match
They are 3x the price and have worse thermal performance so I'm not keen. V8RX7 said:

I got the impression that UPVC, when foiled grey was not far off the cost of Aluminium. I bought Aluminium, didn't think it was eye wateringly expensive.
Perhaps not for a standard window but one of mine is a 7.5m wide triangle.http://rhinoaluminium.co.uk/public/
