SSIAR. Is it really THAT green, or does the green only appear when the sun comes out? :)

Yes and no.
Given the angle of the light upon the paintwork, you get green or auberginey purple. In standard pose I think it looks Black/very dark green.

HOT - The Tuscan I had a test drive in (Thanks Gareth at Moile Valley and now Racing Green) was Reflex Charcoal. It was beautiful!

I chose Chameleon Blue in the end as Swordfish looked so good! But it was definitely my second choice!

BTW, im not buying a Reflex Charcoal, i was interested to know peoples opinions, as ive seen it on a few TVR's and IMO its very much specific car orientated.

I like it , as to me its a modern take on 'proper' British (Brooklands) Racing Green. i.e. a very dark green, almost black, with a modern hint and flash of purple .

Great pictures .
(IMHO) normally the colour is very dark, almost black, as in the car wings on the first picture. The green and the purple are fleeting glimpses to the naked eye, frozen by the camera.
