Grey Car, Silver Car, Silver Car, Grey Car.

My car is silver, can`t think of a colour any more boring!

Take a look in business parking at an airport ..... a distinct herd mentality colourwise .....
The Blue Dacia looks like something of a Rebel .....

A work mate suggested that the car companies are to blame because they make silver/greys for the lease fleets as they are the easiest colours to paint match and the cheapest. No idea if this is true but it makes sense.

Think the grey/silver thing is buyers (corporate ones as Velvet curtain suggests) playing safe and thinking ahead for when it comes time to move it on. YOU may like your car in cerise (whatever that is) but it may put off future buyers.
Exceptions are Alfas and Ferraris - they should be red - take note Chris Evans. (Even though my Alfa is white )

I managed to break the scourge of grey car ownership at the third attempt. Thinking about it my first two were very boring cars, a Nissan Sentra then a Vauxhall Astra. The blue Fiat Panda is considerably more sprightly and very fun to drive.

That's ok as long as it's not an 8c. Those should only ever be in that gorgeous cherry red

I'd quite like a yellow Ferrari (I had a couple of yellow Fiat Coupes a few years back )

My most disastrous car purchase was a black one...should have known...never again!

From current to old... silver, blue, green, maroon.

I rue the passing of two-tone colour schemes.
I had a Rover 105S that was cream and green, and a Vauxhall VX 4/90 which was dark blue and grey.
Also had a 1963 Riley 1.5 in a cute pastel green.

That 8C colour...mmm. Having said Alfas should be red, my lottery win car would be an Alfa Montreal in one of the 70's period colours, which could well be orange or lime green - but they just look right in it.
But definitely not silver/grey

Silver currently for me. The two prior to that were bright metallic blue. Before that it was red, silver, dark metallic blue, light metallic green and my first car was gold with a brown vinyl roof.

Oh, and my car is called Citroen C3...
