So fellow BE readers what does your car colour say about you?

Mine is grey.
Warning if you have a green coloured car then you have no personality or you have chosen a shite car colour

My new car is shite coloured...

"Metalic Urban Titanium"... what the hell is that anyway, none of those describe a colour do they?


Its bullshit anyway innit, Ive had blue, red, silver, brown, purple and dark grey cars in the last 20 years, I cant be all those different personalities, not if I stay on my meds...

Not quite we have more modern furniture and as a shift worker I dont always get to eat at the table at home as we are on opposite work schedules.
Plus Im not into the Lladro type figurines on display in the china cabinet or having flowers on display while Im eating and I dont wear glasses. Its usually sat in front of the TV with plate on my knee watching whatever I have recorded

'My' car is a sleek black Fiat 500 with the Italian flag down the side as a stripe. Everywhere I go people wave and smile, I really enjoy driving her. 'Our' car is a big brute of a Renault Scenic in what I enthusiastically call 'gold' but is more of a vomit yellow, but at least you never lose it in the supermarket, and I sincerely hope the colour says zero about us!

My car is cheap colour. I.e. it was so cheap I couldn't give a monkey's what colour it was.

PS. It's white.

Well done. I have told HID that he can do all the research on our next car and decide what he wants, but I will be picking the colour.

When we we needed to get a new car for the Mrs last time the conversation went along the following lines:

AX "Do you have any thoughts on a new car dear?"
Mrs AX "I want a Volvo SUV (XC90)"
AX "That's rather out of our budget dear"
Mrs AX "In that case I want a red one."

So she got a red one.
