Madjackal 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Since I have had a confirmation of my total loss I am now in the process of making sure I dont get stung by the Insurers so in an effort to evidence as much value as possible id like to see what people think are the most desirable colours, say top 5. To ensure impartiality I wont mention what colour mine was/is..... is anyone else hungry for some sort of small dark fruit?? :grin: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted February 5, 2010 All personnal taste, that why they make different colours, but everyone should know that mystic blue and classic green are the best :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madjackal 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Well I was hoping more for the sort of responses in line with what are generally considered to be desriable colours eg ice grey violet, black, etc rather than just, who thinks their car is the best colour, but thanks for the responses anyway. :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted February 5, 2010 I would say, not necessarily in this order: - Sherry Pearl Metallic - Aqua Blue Pearl Metallic - Bordeaux Pearl Metallic - Ice Grey Violet Pearl Metallic - Satin Silver Metallic They always seem to sell very well, but are obviously only found on the later cars. I think most of the earlier ones tend to be the non-metallic colours apart from the LA9V Brilliant Black Metallic. Just my opinion! Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8vMatt 1 Posted February 5, 2010 Ok, as the last answer wasn't what you were looking for, here's my personal top 5- 1. Mystic Blue 2. Blackberry 3. Satin Silver 4. Ice Grey 5. Black Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullfinch 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Not sure if colour will affect an insurance valuation that much. For my 10p worth I would like the following Corrados; 1. Classic Green Storm 2. Blackberry VR6 3. Nugget G60 4. Silver 16v 5. Ice violet 8v Obviously own no.1 and always hanker after no.2 or no.3 but I think I need all my luck just to keep one 'rado on the road. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Ok, as the last answer wasn't what you were looking for, here's my personal top 5- 1. Mystic Blue 2. Blackberry 3. Satin Silver 4. Ice Grey 5. Black I'd agree with the above pretty much, although not my toal personal taste, but as 'most desired' in general. Dark colours in general, it's what most people want in a car like this and more timeless than a bright colour. Reds tend to fade so don't often look great, so tends to put people off, and yellow or white are never very popular (well as popular anyway), light greeny/bluey metallics can look a bit girly :lol: Green is never a popular colour either for cars in general, it's unlucky :) ask a second hand car salesman :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critical_Mass 10 Posted February 5, 2010 I would have said aqua blue or dragon green. Though i'd also have said Blackberry. 1, Aqua blue 2, blackberry 3, dragon green 4, satin silver 5, ice grey or bordeaux pearl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Langdon 0 Posted February 5, 2010 i cant believe no ones mentioned moonlightblue lol?????? i would agree the dark colours are the most desirable, IMO 1. Blackberry 2. Satin silver (because its quiet rare) 3.Mytic Blue (Storm colour only so again very rare) 4. Moonlightblue (cos i own one lol) regards Chris :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
big ben 10 Posted February 5, 2010 moonlight blue is up there with the best, especially when machine polished and like a mirror :grin: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
V33DUB 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Always liked Dark Burgundy Pearl and it seems to be a desireable colour. Aqua Blue is one of the nicest blues on a car imo. Pearl Grey always seemed to be a desireable colour on the MK2 Golf and I think it looks just as good on the Corrado. Twilight Violet ftw though.
