Was it you...?

...in the Nebula Blue (Anthracite Spiders) on the A4 at about 4.45 last night?

Lovely combo....

[cacatous]

Oooh I'd like to see a picture of that!

[Plotloss]

Very sparkly and the wheels bring it all down nicely.

Good combo on the whole.

Seen at Mania this year, picture does not really show the paint job off that well.



Edited to add another picture

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!

[yoshimitsu]

Tacky tacky tacky.

[Plotloss]

Thats the exact car as it happens...

Lovely looking in the flesh, them fellas at Rage know how to mix paint. Would much rather this than something like Grigio that everyone has...

Its still tacky. Sure, Grigio is a common colour but that along with some of the nicer blacks / silvers /greys is a timeless colour that will always be stylish. Its just a fact that the nicest colours will always become common.

Look at the swordfish blue colour. That is lovely, a nice subtle flip flop, and it is getting pretty common.

These Nebula paints are just too garish to stand the test of time. I think that Nebula cars are bought be people that are just very insecure and need their egos boosting.

[Plotloss]

No its a Ferrari colour thats gained popularity because you sometimes see Ferraris in it. When its forgotten as a Ferrari colour it will be just 'grey'.

TVR should be applauded for using Rages' paint, every car company under the sun offers a grey option...

[yoshimitsu]

And every Scooby / EVO / Nova boy racer gets flip flop and metalflake paint jobs like that done at their local spray shop.

Nebula = Tacky = Driver needs to show off = Low self worth etc. etc.

[cacatous]

I think your posts = low self worth...

[Plotloss]

So you are saying that because someone with a second hand car can go to a bodyshop and buy £600 a litre paint that no one speccing a new TVR should have that finish?

What an utter load of toss.

Its horses for courses really. Some people like the fairly unique Nebula finish as its unusual and you just dont see it and some people like grey. Depends on the person I suppose. I personally absolutely deplore Portland Grey interiors but they are the most common interior for TVR's and I'd never have Grey exterior either but thats just me.

[cacatous]

I had portland grey!! But that's your opinion and your entitled to it

Next time I will go for ehasler's combo... The devil himself would be proud!

[Plotloss]

At least you didnt have fern green and blue...

[cacatous]

Who had that?

[Plotloss]

Just about everyone else who specced Chameleon Blue.

I have honestly seen about 10 in exactly the same spec.
