When I had my mg zt I wanted a chromactive colour but was put off with the £500 a litre price if I ever needed something sprayed. Plus the effort and prep need to blend the panels. Which is also true with the Tvr's although love the flip colours practically not the best put look the bks

If you like it go for it. Personally these paint jobs aren't to my taste and are best saved for the pages of teenagers car tuning mags. Tvrs aren't at all subtle and don't need the 'help' IMHO.
Classic colours are always in demand eg black, silver, blues, grey etc etc how many astons or ferraris (outside of oil nations) have ott paint jobs?
But if you like it go for it. You will of course be restricting the market place should you come to sell.

This is one of the more subtle reflex colours, though previously having a cerb not sure it would suit.

Nice.

I used to have one, and have often regretted selling it. Would go well with the TVR.

It's an original TVR reflex colour (albeit mine started life as a red one - which we all know are faster)

Very very sexy colour that,think its the same colour as Bluethunder's that's up for sale at the mo.Getting kinda keen on these colours may have to change my game plan
Dont want to sound stupid but this type of colour must be easier to match in if needed.

That is one of the fastest cars ever built, well it was when I had it. I suspect all that paint you shoved on it has slowed it down a bit (kidding).

Fantastic paint job, has to be seen in the plastic to be appreciated.

They are trivially easy to match - apart from the price. The paint for mine is £700/litre trade!
