Charcoal/slate grey
Nocturno Blue aremy prefered choices.

Love the Star silver and the deep red what ever it's called but have one in each colour allready.

I like a dark colour - Rubens Red takes my fancy, although black (when clean) really suits the car.

My wife's Nocturno Blue Omega always looked well for about a day after I cleaned it but invariably fell victim to the keek of the country road I live off.

Dark Red, as it takes on the appearence of many colours, depending on the natural light available, I have found! :y

Funny you should mention that... ::)

I like a lot of the colours but mine is Ural Mountain (or duck-poo-green if you've never seen one!).  It looks great when clean and in the sun.

Much prefered my premium blue metalic, or her old silver to either of our current burgandy and ruebens red.

The dark colours show tiny scratches far worse than the light colours as there is too much contrast between the primer and paint.

I would say they hide the dirt better too.

Metallic black for me a bit of a b*gger to keep looking pristine. If it was legal and practical black with maximum tint windows  :y Might look like a pimp mobile but hay ho who gives a sh1t 8-)

Black in the saloon with cream leather (like mine) and Silver in the estate version with grey or black leather.
