The lighter blue in the picture looks better but some dark colours can look very luxurious if well painted - a nice deep sheen can look very classy

(Harder to get with a single stage paint)

Never mind the car, wot about the caravan? I also have a Cheltenham - a 1971 Sable in need of restoration. Looks very pretty behind an Amazon in any colour.
