The blue or grey imo. Black would look nice pita to keep clean though and the v40 really does suit black well.

Out of those three colours, considering you are going for the blond interior, it would have to be Osmium grey.

As above. With the blond interior I think it'll contrast nicely against osmium grey.

Like other Osmium Grey would be my choice out of those as well, bright silver second.

The list left out Caspian Blue ... really really good looking in the flesh! Not as dull i.e. much more lively than Osmium Grey.

As an alternative to grey, silver or black, how about Flamenco Red - just taken delivery of V40 and it gets regular compliments. Wish I had gone for blond interior and not been "persuaded" that blond shows too many marks. Test drove one in Flamenco and blond - georgeous. Agree with PierreC that Caspian Blue is very nice.
