Head Office quite liked the Giallo Granturismo when she was ordering her Maserati, but I felt that a big car like that in it would be too much sunny so she went for metallic black instead. wink

Still looking at colours, so nothing set in stone as yet...

P.S. Have you ordered your car and got a number yet?


Actually, might be my error, it could be I only postewd it on pistonheads last month and not here! Double Doh!

My Griff was Halycon yellow with a dark green bottle full leather interior, and as says 109er it worked very well.

Cheers

My Westfield Megabird was a Giallo yellow with black buckets black roll bar and black wheels.

Not quite an Aero SS but still a 'stunning' combination; though a bit 'in yer face' laugh2

With the rollover-bar and targa panels finished in black, it would give somewhat the appearance of the 2002 Aero - Le Mans car, which I have always liked. De Walt Series I - Le Mans Car

Maserati recommend Rosso Corallo for the interior leather, but that is I think far too radical for me. shocked2 I don't want black, as the AeroMax has a distressed black interior, no dark blue as one of our others cars has this, so what does anyone recommend, that is for the exterior and a contrasting interior? cozychair

Just a thought. Have you considered a combination similar to the current GT3 car?

Another thought. If you are keen on Rosso Corallo for the interior one colour that works really well with this is Audi Lava Grey. We used it in combination with red leather to good effect on our Audi S5 - indeed it's been our default colour on many of our Audi cars as an exclusive option. It's an intensely pearlescent colour with just the slightest hint of brown to it. It is just a splendid colour.

Such as this one ?


This used to be my dealer's +8 He has a Roadster now, with the same colours, but reversed (yellow wings, green body) looks interesting.

If you went for that yellow exterior I would have difficulty describing the red interior as too radical. The whole lot is radical but for me I would say yes please! woohoo

Great choice of colours thumbs For me, in that case, the luggage compartment lid should be in black as well.

You asked for opinions... wink

With this combination, a black interior looks best. Don't use too many colours. Two is maximum. If you want different to black, go for the same also for the exterior.

Unfortunately, there are not too many that go with yellow, without looking "circus" I see just black, dark blue and dark green.

Good luck smile

Salut,
Ivo

Nice to see your AR08 MMC car on the front cover and inside of the latest issue of Beaconsfield Life, popped through the letterbox yesterday.

Advertising the new 'Classics at the Centre' charity meet planned for 26th August at the Gerrards Cross Bucks, Memeorial Centre, on East Common just off of the A40 at 4pm sunny

Thanks for the heads up Frank, how do I get a copy of it? Is it a freebie or would WHSmith have it?

Cheers
Brian
