[fuzzy]

[maxfield]

Macau blue

[gazm3]

That would be nice, would love to see that.

Cheers Gareth.

Calypso red, Calypso red, Calypso red, Calypso red, Calypso red!

i have yet to see a touring in this colour, will look fat! best colour there is.

i'll be back

[d6dph]

mallard green, imperial blue, moonstone grey...... sorry just thought you liked stealing things from the ford/cosworth parts bin

[orangecurry]

granite silver

sorry can't find a picture

[nav786]

it looks dark there but when the sun hits it..... wow.

[Zayyan]

Brilliant red, but I'm biased.

Calypso red metallic would be nice too

[d6dph]

only problem is yo have to have a stupid haircut to drive a calypso red car..... sorry ben!

[fuzzy]

calypso red, got to admit thats one of my favourite colours.......your right d6dph ,i do like the ford/cosworth parts bin but this ones definately going to be bmw ,and the stupid haircut isnt a problem....i have no hair

[fuzzy]

problem would then be ,would a black leather interior go with a calypso red car? or would it be to dark?

na it looks spot on, there is an old pic of bens car with black interior and it looked just as good.

my brothers car is calypso and has black leather, seriously such a beautifull colour. none comes near.

[Nick45]

Really slick gloss black on a set of polsihed split rim cross wires hmmm hmm.

[stevetigger]

granite silver

Granite Silver, nah it looks crap! not



its nearly a ford colour too!



but I do like this colour also!

[bootyman]

PINK Ladies will love ya cause you're in touch with your ferminin side

[320Touring]

hmmm, do you ever stop james????

its probably gonna turn into a "battle of the touring " owners up here If mine gets the stuff I want done.

I'd say get a nice clearcoat black paintjob-all shined up pretty, and get some non wobbly wheels on it and she'll be a goodun

[dobbie82]

I know I am a bit chav in suggesting it but i think a car in flip flop paint would be cool



My dad sprayed his bosses car that colour (Was a MG zs) when you own a body shop I guess you can afford to do these things!

[Geeman]

Flip paint IS for chavs. We're talking BMW's here... not MG's!!!!

[bootyman]

Oi G i'm i a chave then Ho go on please say yes. I've always wanted to be a reble. My blue cab is in flip. Sold it to my mate lastweek for Ԛ£2.5k just to get rid of it and he wants it resprayed in flip again. I'll tell him Geeman say's he's a chav and you best watch it cause they still practice cannibalism where he comes from

[bootyman]

Ho and Range Rover do a factory flip too. I've also seen a factory flip X5 at my local steelers

[Geeman]

Okay... I'll re-phrase that.

The flip paint picture that Dobbie posted IS Chav... it's like that Chameleon paint that Nissan did on the Micra and Primera... lovely. Not.

A subtle change in colour is fine, but not a blatent change from Orange to Green to Purple to Yellow to White to Black to... etc.

Know what I mean?

Granite Silver every time
cant beat the exclusiveness of having the only one in that colour, ive seen a calipso touring at Gaydon 2 years running in the big tarmack car park both times

[bootyman]

I'll tell him to put his knife and fork away for now G

I once looked at a BM in Sterling Silver i think. That was really nice, but i do love the Callipso Reds

[bigkev]

black is beutifull

[sideways_kyeway]

Charcoal grey perhaps.......
Almost black but not quite, mean looking...

[bootyman]

Well thank you bigkev. Where did you see me to know i was beautiful? Anway i like burgers and not sussages so you're out of luck there

[bigkev]

only buetifull people drive E30's




















(i have obviously never met any of the zoner's)

[bigkev]

isnt she a pretty liittle thing

[CaesarBob]

Macau Blue if your desparate to change the colour or alternatively i'd go for a respray in white with a Motorsport tricolour stripe across the roof (or possibly a big blue oval on the roof! )

[hammoj28]

Diamond black obviously!lol.

If not that then calypso red is nice but nightfire red is really nice although i dont think its an original e30 colour.

Just not silver, way too many silver cars around these days
