A mate at work really hates red cars unless they're the ubiquitous Fezza - what do other people think? Can it look good on a skoda? It didn't hurt Postman Pat did it?

Red looks great on 80's 911s. Before they rounded bits off.

I would normally agree but I have a Alfa GTV in Alfa red and I think it looks pretty good - must be the Italian thing!!

I hate red cars, which is odd as I currently have two of them. This all stems from my First TVR a 1600M which was a shade of Ferrari Rosso something or other. It faded really badly and was an arse to get any sort of shine on. There is something about red, the paint seems to fade, our Citroen (Red) did the same thing.

Still at least the Saab and Cerb are darkish red.

Grrrr

Some cars REALLY dont suit red. For example Vectras, Mondeos, Astras, Nissan 200SX's and Jag XK-R's. Or is it just the shade of red they use ?

Don, is that the new one? Looks v.nice!

Red does suit some cars better than others though definately. The TT in red looks bloody awful (IMHO of course )
