Cheers!

The colour is Halcyon Atlantis, it really does look the business in the sun. Unfortunately we've been too busy driving it to take many pictures yet, but the previous owner sent me a couple more:





My wife was very much set on getting one in either this colour or reflex purple- this one ticked all the other boxes too (light interior, Powers rebuild etc) so it was an easy decision.

[QBee]

Is it a reflex colour or not?
I am going to be re-spraying my Chimaera in the next year or two, and Halcyon Atlantis looks like exactly the kind of colour I would like to go to.
It's not too far from my present colour, and the interior is suitable, as the car was originally starbar blue.

Fortunately it's not a reflex colour- so quite a bit cheaper in terms of a respray! It goes between blue and green depending on the light, but not to the extent of (I think) Chameleon Green which is a reflext colour. It's definitely more blue than green though.

The 240k mileage Chim owned by Frank (Blaze?) on here is Halycon Atlantis I think. I've seen his Chim in person a few times and it really does suit the shape.

ETA I'm pretty sure this is his with the black wheels next to Alun's car:
