Colour of the E90 5 -series (grey)
Discussion
I mean e60! Doh!
Apologies, i know theres already a topic about high milers on here, but in order not to confuse things, ive posted this in a new topic. Ive posted it in GG too but i realised the best place is probably here.
Anyway;
In short, i might be going to look at a 5 series this weekend. It's this:
Listed as 'space grey metallic'. Now to me, that looks kinda blue, but im unsure if its just the photographs.
As a comparison, the colour i want, is this:
Are they going to be the same, and maybe the colour ofn the sky/light in picutre #1 is making it look lighter than it is?
By comparison, i used to have a vectra in this colour, which #1 looks too similar to.
Is this just me, or did they do more than one grey for the 5 series?
And last but not least, this image shows the right arrow listed as the OBC (on board computer). Does this mean it doesnt have sat nav, or have the settings just been changed?

It does have a tendency to look different depending on the light.

What year is yours? The Post 2007 models seem to look a little different. Something about an LCI or something.

I've sold that car about 12 months ago.
Had it from new, it was an LCI on an '07 (on a private plate) and a brilliant car, I loved every minute I drove it.
It was the first in the UK to have SAT and that gearbox is bloody lovely, and even better when combined with a mapped x35 Diesel engine
When I sold it had 68,000 miles on the clock and was absolutely spotless - it went for £18600 to the first person that viewed it!
I've now got a 997, but still miss the 535D. A really, really good car and would not hesitate to recommend one to anyone.
it was also featured in Autocar and voted best 'Half Price Hero' - that was a good day
