Bright Yellow Jaguar XKR

[Twin Turbo]

....seen yesterday near Farnham.

I say to you Sir, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Primrose Yellow may have looked OK on a E-Type, but Norfolk Mustard (as in the Lotus colour) is a little OTT on a Jagwaaar.

I assume this must have been a special order colour. Hope he intends to keep the car for life!

He may have the £££ but as we know £££ don`t buy good taste , i do not even want to imagine this

I agree that the Jaguar sounds hideous, what was he thinking? Anyway I once saw a Lotus Elise that was plain white and it was horrid! Looked like the factory had forgotten to paint it, quite simply the most awful thing imaginable. I would have hated to have seen it dirty as well!

A white Elise ,,,,,,,, what is wrong with these people

[castex]

i saw a dirty, white elise once, and i liked it.
There, i said it. This has, or course, nothing to do with the fact that my dream 325i touring turned out to be white.
Anyway, white's not even a colour. So that decides it

I was up at my dealers yesterday and saw a White Tuscan and what could be described as a Brown Cerbera....

325i tourer in white - must look like a chest freezer.

But wait for it, we have a WHITE Audi TT that trundles through our village quite often. We also have the whole bloody range as well, a blue one,a silver one and that black too – the only one I haven't seen yet through our place is the green ... oh, edited to say haven't seen a grey one yet.

But WHITE, come on ...

Then again, I saw a dark blue Cavalier with black rear lights and orange wheels yesterday ...

It had a 12' aerial on the n/s rear wing and an England flag on the o/s rear window. ANd one of those louvred horizontal slatted plastic things over the rear window.

No, i think its called Dog shit brown

I saw a gold Saxo with gold alloys (a la Clio Williams), yesterday, looked like an apprentice pimp's car. He'll no doubt get around to the gold wheel-arch extensions when he's got a few more girls.

seen a new shape range rover today just one question Why so fcukin big ? soon you will need a psv license to drive one , shouldnt be long before i meet one down a back lane with some rich blokes blonde bimbo behind the wheel and have to make her reverse or like i done to a stupid cow in a landcruiser wouldnt pull over for fear of it getting dirty so i dragged the drivers side mirror right down the side

[nigelbasson]

I think the same when I see some old woman driving a custard yellow Porsche Boxster round near me.

If you are going to pay that much on a car why choose an awful colour? Or do these people think that everyone is looking at them admiring their cars - when infact everyone is looking at them because they are thinking "Why did you choose that colour you loser?"

[smeagol]

Waht was it Dirty Harry that said "What kind of @rsehole would could paint this car that colour" Talking about a lime green lambo I believe.

Don't know if this has been mentioned before, but when Mclaren were taking orders for F1s they were available in any colour the customer wanted. They actually made a brown one for a customer. I've seen pictures of it and it looks like the fastest turd in the world!
