Here is what I meant to post in respect to your post...
Andy, the colour used above sounds similar to your own (it is Aston Martin Black Metallic - it actually has a very obvious silver fleck in the paint. It looks awesome in the metal) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/love.gif" alt="" />
I don't think black is a bad choice for the Aero but I do think the orange leather will limit you come resale. This is, of course, my humble opinion but I'm sure we've all had that "hmmmn...." from the dealer when you come to trade a car in and you've been a little daring when choosing the colour and interior trim <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
I think the Veyron red/black colour scheme is great - with biscuit leather (there is a car for sale on Mogan's site at the moment). And yes, I do think tan/biscuit is safer than orange - in fact, it would be a stunning choice.
Do you have any pictures of your car? I'd love to see them.
As for the evilness... it's funny you say that. As I said, my wife saw the black and orange Aero and said, "that is your car!" but what I left out is that I already have a personal reg that spells EVIL <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> ... this has been waiting to go on a black car for the last 2-years <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />
I even considered calling RTCC and asking if it was too late to change my car over to this colour choice when I saw the photos... however, my fear of te "hmmn..." come resale and my love of the colour I've chosen warded the evil off this time!
