A kind donor has offered to buy you a car. You won't know what make or model it is, and the only thing you can choose is the colour.

What colour would you ask for?

No wraps allowed afterwards - you drive it as you're given it.

Silver. At least that way if it's some hideous eurobox it'll blend in a bit.

Black.

Pain in the arse to keep clean but suits more cars than any other colour IMHO.

Black.

It looks good on the majority of cars, in my opinion.

I'd ask for mine in Hallmark.

It's a rather nice gunmetal/silver colour which is only available on Bentleys, so I'd have a pretty good idea what car I'd be getting. . . . .

I just reckon that if it's going to be a car you have no choice over, then you might as well have it in the most garish colour possible. That way it'll look stunning if it's a supercar, and at least vaguely interesting if it's a 320d.

At least if it turns out to be some boring euro box you can find it in a car park
