the roads have become dull colourless and boring

[joz*garage]

      an observation i had while driving around a fair bit latey

all you see are neutral coloured cars - white silvers greys

hardly see a red or a blue one, lol

or classic cars

mines red, whats yours?

JG,  I agree a little with your OP, however one has to be practical.

Mini are bringing bout a new hatch-back in March and a 2Lt  JCW version towards the end of the year. I have chosen my model and the colour is red or blue ( trying to lose the go faster stripes) with a white roof  ( not a sunroof   in a  fit )  to reduce thermal load.

Like  you and IF,  a cheerful body colour is a must for myself, however, lime green seems to be a tradie sports car  dreamin vehicle.

I agree, the silver (so popular) and some greys are practically invisible at times.

White is better for visibility to me.

When I bought my car about six years ago, the salesman said the silvers are the bestseller, and have better resale value. I believe that is still the case.

The least purchased now (and for a while) is red.

Boring silver.  But in my defence, I had picked out the red one and was on the verge of ordering it when we found one 5 months old, just over 500km on the clock and $5000 cheaper.  It was a no brainer.   I just pretend it's red now.

Commodore - 1993 model - kiri aqua.

Few dings, cobwebs around side mirrors, gumleaves in the windscreen wipers area, bird and fruitbat droppings.  

New hubcabs - $15 from SC Auto (too shiny, though - time will sort that out)

Is known to frequent roadside junk collections (can't park too long, it may be picked up too).

Done 10 km in the past fortnight.
