Question Brisa Blue ???

Guess I'm looking for some validation here.
- Can anyone confirm quite what Brisa Blue looks like?

I have an FR TDI on order, currently in Brisa.

Looking at the brochure colour swatches - Fine
Looking at the website swatches - Fine
Looking at a sample swatch in my dealership - Damn fine

However, I remain somehow unconvinced as I've never really seen this one in the flesh.

I saw an Ibiza on the forecourt a couple of weeks back which someone told me was Brisa, but I'm not sure. It looked more like a flat, battle-ship grey kinda thing.

I've seen Audis, VWs, Skodas... In fact pretty much any marque in what I'd see as similar shades & they look really good to me, yet I remain uncertain

Settling on a colour has turned into a right mission & a half

Searches have proven inconclusive, other than a slightly dubious shot courtesy of Google...

Here's a link for you to have a look over it shows the current colours, however it doesnt show the new yellow.

Your right the Brisa blue is quite a flat colour, some people say it looks like the car hasnt been painted, i quite like it myself its a different colour, its not as common as other colours! It does give off a different shade in different lights - ie inside and outside!

Also here is a link where you can see the leon in Brisa Blue

Hope this helps.

Cheers T4Z,

That's an interesting pic - Again unlike those I've seen.
Seems an intruiging colour & as you say, one that's going to appear differently according to conditions.

I keep going back to that shot in a "Just what *is* going on there?!" kinda way.

You're right, it is a break from the rest & that's why I was drawn to it initially.
With the other colours, as much as I liked some I also had a negative reaction to them. This one seems to keep my interest even if I haven't decided whether I actually like it yet!

Decisions. decisions...
Maybe I should stock up on Hammerite, just in case

I do like the colour for a blue coloured car, never really been too keen on plain blue colours but this one is interesting, kinda reminds me of the Navy, its the kinda colour them Navy girls and guys wear!!!
