In the distant future I will be at a stage to spray my roundie (it is currently in a garage far far away)
I have been thinking of colours for some time now and at the top of my list is this...
What are your thoughs?
It is Speedwell blue.

Correction, it's not ace, it's phung-kay or groov-ay. (funky or groovy) Hey, there's a number plate. |

Speedwell blue comes from the same family of mini colours as my van which is smoke grey(it's more blue than grey) I think it is a great colour. the great thing about it is that it gives off different tones in different light. Whereas red is red, yellow is yellow. Grey/blue however changes tone. which is great. One thing i noticed was that the colours cards that the paint shop did up gave no real indication on what it actually looks like on the car. I still have the original card. place it on the card it blends in, but look at it by itself and you would never want your car that colour. You need a good sized sample to get it's true colour and then look at it in different light. trust me it is worth doing. Cheers Aaron PS. Am I starting to sound like one of those interior designer types?
