Just got a white convertible, it's got a blue hood, blue interior, and a very thin black coachline down each side. I'm having a new roof fitted next week, what colour should I have? stick with the blue, or go for black?

Blue.

You're whole interior will be blue, door cards, carpet, hood cover section, am I right...?

Blue's a bit nice than a black one anyway...

Go for Blue and let us know what the fit is like and where you get it done.

My cab (white with blue original hood) needs doing after 15 years of rain and shine...

2 thirds say blue which I'm quite surprised by... many thanks to all who have voted... this is really useful, for as much as anything at some time it's going to be for sale and it's nice to know what the majority think so it will be as saleable as possible when the time comes...
at the moment I'm probably going with the blue, I'll report on the fit and service next week. I'm using a company I've used before (for a Golf hood), they used to be called Autohoods, just off the M25 at about 8o/clock, I think they're now called Car Hood Warehouse...0208 391 5324

Now i could be wrong but my friends Dad got a cabby new in 1989 and his had the blue hood and it was special order when he got the car.
