There are 3 colours, or 4, red black and silver/grey Red has a gold fleck in it. Black has a silver fleck and the silver has a blue fleck or depending what your parked near reflects the colour it is. Silver is the fastest, so well done

Tit. grey is quite different to the silver and seems to have a lilac tinge at twilight.

I know, I was even quite surprised at fuel economy on the run...but bearing in mind I drove Cardiff to Motherwell like Miss Daisy at 70 on cruise, its about right. Ok...still not too clear, just the 3 colours in the 6MPS? just curious...been having numerous arguments with my mates already, beginning to think ive got the vision of Ray Charles!!
