i have to laugh at the " silver is the hardest to match" quotes, cos every car i've had they all say the exact same. red xr2i, bengal yellow cupra sport ibiza and black LCR. all greeted with a shake of the head and a big sigh before the immortal " blah blah it'll cost a bit more cos BLANK is one of the hardest colours to match in, its a bloody nightmare etc etc. :think: :rolleyes: :whistle:

Know what you mean....but that info was imparted by my neighbour/mate - he had nothing to gain from my demise - he works in the body shop (which I didn't use) - he's not a painter - just said that none of the painters relish the prospect of silver cars and would rather avoid them for other jobs...

Having said that - the bodyshop/dealership that I did use, although pricey, had no probs with the colour - it's spot on !

I'm sure I could get blown for less than £300 round here Stan
:lol::lol::lol::lol: PRICELESS !!
