Colour !
Visited my local Jaguar dealership yesterday to collect some touch-in paint for one of my intruders. On arrival, I noticed how socially distanced all their cars were (usually rammed with nowhere to park), and that they were all in monochrome colours. As I went in, I noticed a late middle-aged couple talking to a salesman about a new purchase. When I came out I overheard him ask what colour they fancied - the lady immediately pointed to my Trophy Blue ZT, and said that was what she liked. "But Madam" replied tha salesman, "that is not a Jaguar". It may not have been, but I confess to feeling slightly smug.

My ZT-T is in Trophy Blue & without doubt it is one of the best colours.

If you look in any car park you’ll see a sea of silver, white, black and grey. There is the odd splash of red or blue, but it’s mostly a bland monochrome world.
I agree Trophy Blue is an excellent colour for a ZT and they are a very eye catching car amongst the modern grey blobs. |
The current trend for bland colours is, well.....bland.
More than once I have stood back and watched my wife try to open the door on someone else's boring white SUV. Hers is a Kia but they are all so alike you can hardly tell them apart. I do love my Solar Red ZT, and Volcano Orange MGF. They stand out in the sea of blandness. |
Not just with cars Rich - try and get a kitchen in any colour but bland. :getmecoat:
We ended up going second hand to get what we wanted, aubergine and cream, as the supplier had just stopped production when we were in the market. :} |

the house next door to me came up for sale several years ago, I viewed it and it had an originals 1970's kitchen fitted in RED cupboard doors. Was very retro, wish I'd taken a photo before the new owners ripped it all out! |
