    Who is fed up with Silver Cars

    Simple thing really.....WHO HATES SILVER now its so damn popular?

    I still rate it as easiest colour to maintain, but punters are starting to avoid it cos its so prolific...

    Seconds are counting.....vote drivers

    not bothered, although I was thinking yesterday how many silver cars there were about, I've even seen an ever increasing number of "silver van man".

    silver... the new white

    you almost bid on a car; and you diudn't know what make it was.

    almost makes my bids look informed and rational

    The only car that looks good in silver is a 156 Veloce, anything else is just dull and boring and unimaginative.

    Silver should hence forth be banned and extra road tax should be levied on any existing silver cars (excluding 156's, of course).

    Personally I think it's a nice colour, and can make any car look good. It's bright red cars that I hate. They look so awful Metallic colours are the way forward
