Who's OE colour is closest to number plate yellow? Some are close, some are not. I'm waiting for the colour matched plate :-D

Having owned a yellow car, I have one word for you:

Wasps.

Ha, had no idea. I’ve got an orange car that’s a magnet for flys, I can do without wasps though

Not mine obviously

But one of my motoring regrets - saying 'no' to one because £2500 was too much headache

ETA: Ford Signal Yellow - I know the Pantone, but can't find the Pantone ref for UK number plate yellow - any other anoraks happen to know?

I've often wondered if the owners of yellow cars are always seeing a constant stream of people punching each other coming the other way?

Two brilliant cars in that picture. I've owned the Fiat but the Chim is on my bucket list.

Someone must know the code. It should be in the legislation or standard. I won’t believe that no one has yet painted a car “uk licence plate yellow”.

Didn’t tell my kids when I bought mine. First thing I did when I got home was punch them.
