This is my old car, it is Rover Nightfire red with a cream model band and I think it looks brilliant.
For a cream vinyl roof, IMO it's spot on - just lovely

Yup a stunning color for an M with a vinyl roof.

GTRene,
I'm sure the above "also in style" is what my 3000M was like when it left Blackpool.
I just don't know if it had the cream band.

that colour is maybe a tad to much? personally I would like the colour I posted a few pictures of, on page 1 better.

btw, how would this colour scheme/combo look on a 3000M its a bit like Peter Wheelers 5000M special, so such sort and then also such sort colour interior haha.
such a lovely Porsche that new lightweight Singer and so far out of reach, but looking at just the car, lovely.

so such colour combo with also black-ish wheels and a special sporty interior in the M if you dare :-)





that wide ass mmm (only on a car though)

is this the same colour or? looks good, although I'm not a red fan, this sort I do not have a problem with :-)

this gold-ish one in this picture looks very nice as well.

Sorry, only just seen this post...

The colour is Flamenco Red done by our specialist paint shop who mainly do Jaguars.

It is a modern Jaguar could colour very close to the original but gas a subtle metallic flake which really does look good.

Regards, Paul.

I have bought Vinyl to recover all the roof and Weathershield as original.
I will remove all the fittings myself and recover the Roof + Weathershield after painting.
I think i will be busy for a while.
As i understand this will mean rubbing down to Gel Coat and Polyester Filler before Painting.
I'm just waiting for Estimates from 3 different Garages
