If grey, silver and black were uninvented; what would you choose as your next car colour?

This post is inspired due to the fact that I’ve just dropped my car off at the garage as it needs a service. While I was waiting around I counted how many cars where in the lot, there were 58. Now out of these 58 different models of Land Rover they were all either black or silver/grey. What’s that all about?

The lady at the garage said that in the 5 years she has worked there, mine is only the second Range Rover she has ever seen in white.

So why are so unadventurous when it comes to picking colours for our cars? I do think black looks good if it is kept clean and highly polished but there are sooo many of them around there is just no individuality in owning one. And as for silver, well I’ve never liked silver as a car colour to be honest. Dull, dull, dull. But even worse is grey, grey is associated with boring old politicians isn’t it? What really makes me sad is when I see supercars in grey, I mean that is just wrong. There are a couple of Aston Martin’s and an Audi R8 in my neighbourhood and for some reason I just don’t understand, the owners chose them in grey. Shouldn’t a supercar be something of a statement?

So let’s pretend that you’re in the market for a new car and that the colours silver, grey or black didn’t exist. What colour would you choose?

P.S. Here’s some “inspiration”
