Nice tourings around here... Doesn't anyone like mine? :(

My car is going in for a new paintjob sometime in the next month, just wanted opinions on what colour. Should I keep it the original diamondswarzche (donno how to spell it) or do I do something else with it? I want a dark color, I WAS thinking matte black until I saw Munky's. Don't wanna be a copy cat, although it looks truly spectacular.

Any input?

I like it. Love the pics, shame about the dent in the wing though. Guess that'll be sorted when it's resprayed...

Love that Techno Violet that Cotty's showed. Near enough to black to not give problems with colour coming through, but will look BRILL...

Looking good Ian.
I am biased.
Easily one of the best tourings on here.
It was rough, when I owned it. winkeye After all the crap I had to go through.!!!!
The body work is mega clean, and I knew it would be the car for you.

That grey glove box looks good with the centre console.

This gets my vote. By a country mile and I have seen many tourings.

Attention to detail. Mr Temple. winkeye
