I think I've just found the colour of my next TVR, when I win the lottery and can afford a new one. I must say, it's even nicer than the usual blues to my eyes! A nice Typhon in that colour would be wonderful...

nah, it's more changeable than rolex blue. Can't remember the name, but it's currently on sale at TVR-MADS, hang on and I'll look it up again.
edited to add: Advertised as 'Extreme Rainbow chameleon'
edited again: Mine's Imperial Pearl and looks purple/blue depending on the light, but there's nowhere near as much contract as on that one

So does that mean youd have to wear black all the time and only enter buildings via the window (via helicopter, skis, cable car, etc)

No it's not, and just when I was about to get my cheque book out too (though I'm not sure he'd accept a rubbery £37,000 cheque)!

I've just been reading your posts on GG in response to Lois (sp) - really sound advice. I've enjoyed reading your posts recently, I'm glad you can find time to humor me inbetween your serious posts! .

Thats the shade of BLUE one gets if you 'over-spray' a Cerbie of yellow/silver/green/red combinations..!...I think you'll all agree there is no better colour than BLUE/PURPLE combination...

I was waiting for you, Satman . Always one for a good old joke

Seriosly, IMHO i'm not over impressed by this blue - yes its nice, dont get me wrong, and well polished up too, and with a nice looking interior, but there are better colours for a Tiv out here......

I suppose that's why they offer them in non-blue colours for the riff-raff . Come on then, put your pictures where youfr mouth is (and pictures of your own car don't count!).

Is the interior the same as this one? Portland grey looks divine.

I don't care what colour it is but such aesthetic majesty once again begs the question, is this not amongst the vanguard of the elite ito sensuous vehiculardom?

I think this and the F355 are my all time favourite car profiles.

Glorious.

Simon, you are the only man that can talk utter bollocks and complete sense at the same time.

Saw a Cerb in that colour in York on Saturday. It looked and sounded fantastic. To make matters worse, I was taking a mate's Z3 out for a spin at the time. I felt very humble.
