Yellow cars in the UK

[Funkstar De Luxe]

Who's OE colour is closest to number plate yellow? Some are close, some are not. I'm waiting for the colour matched plate :-D

Having owned a yellow car, I have one word for you:

Wasps.

It’s a fair point.

Ha, had no idea. I’ve got an orange car that’s a magnet for flys, I can do without wasps though

[Stussy]

Imola yellow

[Pastor Of Muppets]

Norfolk Mustard.

[Steamer]

Not mine obviously

But one of my motoring regrets - saying 'no' to one because £2500 was too much

ETA: Ford Signal Yellow - I know the Pantone, but can't find the Pantone ref for UK number plate yellow - any other anoraks happen to know?

I've often wondered if the owners of yellow cars are always seeing a constant stream of people punching each other coming the other way?

Two brilliant cars in that picture. I've owned the Fiat but the Chim is on my bucket list.

I hope that I can afford one of those in that colour before I die!

Someone must know the code. It should be in the legislation or standard. I won’t believe that no one has yet painted a car “uk licence plate yellow”.

Didn’t tell my kids when I bought mine. First thing I did when I got home was punch them.
