Rarest E30 colour?

[peejay]

I was once given a courtesy car that was described as 'Airforce blue' by, yes Adam, Series Nine.

It was gross never seen one before or since (thank god!)

Nott'ham Fox ask Adam about it, his dad loved it. I think it was a 320 it was about 7/8 years ago so i assume it is in heaven now.

Either Zinnobarrot or brilliantrot....

....The originals have all either faded to a wierd pink/orange or have had some bodyshop apprentice try and match the colour but done it badly.

give it a good polish with a p/c or rotarty and it will look like it did when new,

my calypso looked awful when i got, looked more brown then calypso but now it is true calysorat red

Same with my brilliantrot 316i... I'm sure I got it cheap because it was pink... and it isnt any more!!

Now I've polished it I'm sorting the rust at the front wheelarches... when I've done that I might even show my new wheels off with piccies... ...and some of my other car as well.

PUSTA green wins for me! WTF is that all about, but I like it in a perverse kind of way

sterling silver metallic by the looks of it, cant get hold of spare panels for love nor money.

You're miles off the mark!

Not exactly E30, but here's a list of E24 colours:

I had no idea there were so many different shades of beige... Completely agree with what everyone is saying about Brilliantrot - when I picked up my 318is it was pink. Very pink. A week, and a bottle of T-cut later and it looks fantastic. Well worth the effort.

(And I could find myself committing a serious crime to get my hands on that Misano Red 6er)
