In answer to Dems point Yep the wife hates it even in another colour, but I love the car just feel yellow is a bit much for me at 42.

Bal it is actually a very rare colour (Giallo Sprint) on any non Open cup car. I think there are two at most that includes mine, it was ordered without electronic suspension so quite a unique car.

Personally I wouldn't change the colour especially as it is a rare car in a rare colour. My Tiger is one of three (two remaining) originally painted in a colour called Orchid Green, it is a sort of pale lime green and not to everyones taste. When it was restored they actually wanted it in writing that I actually wanted it repainted in that colour! To be honest after 20 years I have got used to it and now quite like the fact it is different. As for yellow at 42 I would say the colour suits the car so your age isn't relevant, it wouldn't stop me buying a car in yellow if it was a colur that suited the aprticualr car and I am only a year younger than you.

very nice in that yellow. Not many cars you can get away with in that colour but this one works IMHO.

Miles has cleared the glitch on the thread so I can now read all the positive comments onthe colour. It is great I know and the pictures do not do it justice.
It is very loud almost a Lambo colour.

Loz my wife is making a comedy drama for BBC1 called Candy Cabs which is being televised 5th April the first of three weekly episodes. The cars used in this were wrapped a candy pink and I have seen them up close. They were brilliant and you would be hard pushed to tell they were not real

Peter,

As others have said - I'd stick with the same colour....a proper colour chnage will cost a lot, and to my mind always raises some questions on resale, however unjustified. Speak to Martin and Phil - they are always raving about a guy that did a Ferrari for them and did a perfect job and a low price.
